Sherrod Brown to Run for Senate in Ohio

Former Sen. Sherrod Brown (D) “has decided to run in 2026 for U.S. Senate, attempting a return to the office that he lost last year after a savagely fought reelection campaign,” the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

“Brown’s decision, which comes after months of speculation about his political future, gives Ohio Democrats perhaps their best hope of unseating incumbent U.S. Sen. Jon Husted, a Columbus-area Republican appointed to the job earlier this year.”
