Former Ohio Governor Bob Taft (R) endorsed Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) in a Dayton Daily News op-ed.
“I have always run for office under the banner of the Republican Party, am a conservative and usually vote a straight Republican ticket. Although still a Republican, I will be making an exception this year in Ohio’s U.S. Senate race by supporting Sherrod Brown.”
Taft is the only person to have beaten Brown in an election — the 1990 race for Ohio Secretary of State.
