Ohio Democratic U.S. Senate candidate and former Sen. Sherrod Brown spoke at a campaign event in Cleveland. He discussed his Republican opponent Sen. John Husted (R) and Sen. Husted's campaign contributions from big tech, as well as diesel prices, the Iran war, and congressional stock trading. Rep. Shontel Brown (D), who was running for reelection in Ohio's 11th Congressional District, also campaigned in support of the former senator. Brown would face Sen. Husted in the November 3, 2026 general election, which both Inside Election and the Cook Political Report rated as a "Toss-Up."
