Brown makes successful return to US Senate after voters reject Republican incumbent Jon Husted

Democrat Sherrod Brown will return to the US Senate, as Ohio’s voters rejected the incumbent Jon Husted in a significant defeat for Republicans.

Brown’s bid for a comeback after being ousted from the seat he held for 18 years in 2024 became one of the marquee contests of this year’s midterm elections, and a key test of whether Democrats can regain support among the working class and rural voters who have deserted them in recent years.

    like even conservatives aren’t that stupid

    Don’t give them too much credit. I have former coworkers who are ODing on copium about how the economy is the strongest it’s ever been, and the Dems have no agenda except going after the orange pedo and his crotch fruit.
