Summary
Husted said Ohio Republicans feel rising momentum in the final weeks of the midterms, citing larger crowds and recent visits from Trump, Vice President Vance and Sen. John Kennedy despite polls showing a tight Senate race.
Affordability has become the campaign’s central pressure point, with Husted arguing Republicans must cut prices and attacking Democrats for blocking his bill to make large data centers pay their own power and infrastructure costs.
Brown’s campaign countered that Husted backed the Iran war that drove gas and diesel to record highs and said he helped bring 226 data centers to Ohio, framing him as favoring corporations over households.
Butler, Clermont and Warren counties remain a crucial GOP vote reservoir in southwest Ohio, and local party leaders said turnout there could determine whether Republicans hold the Senate seat, governorship and contested House races.
