Senator Jon Husted dismissed his political director because of activity displaying a “complete lack” of judgment, according to a spokeswoman.
Former Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, is challenging incumbent Sen. Jon Husted, R-Ohio, in a race the Cook Political Report rates a toss-up.
Incumbent Sen. Jon Husted, R-Ohio, tells “NewsNation Prime” his campaign had nothing to do with a National Republican Senatorial Committee political ad on immigration targeting his opponent, Democrat Sherrod Brown, which includes information about a fatal accident. Relatives of victims have spoken out against the use of their story in the message. “I asked them to take it down. I didn’t know anything about the ad. I wasn’t involved with the ad,” Husted said. #Ohio #Midterms #SenateRace "NewsNation Prime" is America’s source for unbiased news offering a full range of perspectives from across the U.S. Weekends starting at 7p/6C. #Prime NewsNation is your source for fact-based, unbiased news for all Americans.

All 100 senators agreed to leave Washington in the predawn hours of August 8, sidelining President Trump's push for voter-ID legislation and raising questions about the GOP majority's appetite for the fight. At 4:57 a.m. on a Saturday morning, with most of America asleep, the United States Senate wrapped up its business and scattered for a five-week recess. No senator, Republican or Democrat, objected. The SAVE America Act, Trump's signature election-integrity bill requiring voter ID and proof of citizenship, never came to the floor. And the chamber won't return for real votes until the afternoon of September 15. The mechanics of how it happened matter, because they reveal a quiet consensus that cuts against the public posture of a…Open
Vice President JD Vance rallied for Republican candidates Friday at the same Middletown, Ohio, steel plant where his grandfather worked for decades, casting Democrats as a party that abandoned the working class.

Vice President JD Vance rallied for Republican candidates Friday at the same Middletown, Ohio, steel plant where his grandfather worked for decades, casting Democrats as a party that abandoned the working class. Vance took the stage inside the Cleveland-Cliffs Middletown Works facility, formerly Armco Steel, and opened with a personal note that doubled as a political argument. His grandfather, James Vance, welded steel there for nearly 40 years. The family came north from Kentucky's hills looking for a middle-class life, and the plant delivered one. Now, Vance told the crowd, the party James Vance once supported for its union ties has become unrecognizable. As the Associated Press reported , Vance framed the visit as both a homecoming…Open
‘will expand far beyond Ohio’
A new populist fever is coursing through the midterms, forcing campaigns to retreat and recalibrate as they confront a groundswell of hostility toward AI data centers. Why it matters: Grassroots pressure is breaking the bipartisan consensus that enabled America's AI buildout. Candidates in both parties are now racing to distance themselves from projects their own leaders spent years courting. The big picture: What started as scattered, localized NIMBYism is scaling into a national cross-partisan movement that could slow America's race for AI supremacy. - In Ohio, former Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown has spent millions on a summer ad campaign branding Republican Sen. Jon Husted as "the face of data centers," weaponizing Husted's years of…
The Senate GOP campaign arm, in a private memo to top AI companies, warns that toxic views of U.S. data centers are killing the party's chances of holding a vital seat in Ohio. - In the memo, obtained by Axios, the National Republican Senatorial Committee says Democrats have made data centers a "centerpiece" of their campaign to defeat Sen. Jon Husted (R-Ohio) — and that it's working. - "If he loses and data centers get the blame, politicians across the country will take notice — and they will not go near the next one," the memo says. "This has become a sleeper issue for the entire election cycle." Why it matters: Republicans want the AI companies to do whatever it takes to stem the public backlash. The big picture: AI CEOs and top…
The House opened an ethics investigation into Rep. Max Miller, an Ohio Republican, following allegations of domestic abuse made by his wife. Republican Sen. Jon Husted, also of Ohio, says any domestic abuse is "intolerable," and if the allegations are proven to be true, then Miller should step down.

Husted, who ran unopposed in the state Republican primary, urged the House Ethics Committee to seriously evaluate the abuse allegations and encouraged Miller to resign for the sake of his young daughter.
