Controversial Candidate Considers Dropping Out Again

February 28, 2024 · 7:24 am ET · Leave a Comment

Politico: “J.R. Majewski (R) acknowledged that his recent controversy over disparaging comments about the Special Olympics had changed the dynamic of the race and that he may struggle in a general election against Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH).”

“It’s not clear when or if Majewski, an Air Force veteran, would exit the race. There are just three weeks to the March 19 primary, early voting began six days ago, and Majewski has a history of changing his mind.”
