Who’s going to run for Rob Portman’s seat? I’ve got a bunch of names — and several responses — from potential candidates on both sides here. buzzfeednews.com/article/henryg…
👀 for this @TimRyan response to my question about whether he’ll run for the Portman seat. 🤷🏻‍♂️ buzzfeednews.com/article/henryg…
Other Democrats being mentioned include Nan Whaley, David Pepper, Danny O’Connor, and AMY ACTON, DeWine’s former health director. Whaley keeping options open, a Dem close to her says. O’Connor still processing the Portman news. buzzfeednews.com/article/henryg…
Republicans could have a “shit show” of a primary, with Jim Jordan seen as a possibility and a bunch of statewide officeholders or other House members looking to move up. Husted, LaRose, Yost, JD Vance, Mike Gibbons all being mentioned. buzzfeednews.com/article/henryg…

There will be a lot of high-profile Ohio Republicans who take a long look at the Portman seat. Names already being mentioned: Lt. Gov. Jon Husted, AG Dave Yost, Secretary of State Frank LaRose, former state treasurer Josh Mandel, and yes, Jim Jordan.
"Well, this will be a total shit show," one Ohio Republican strategist just texted me.
On the Democratic side, you're going to hear a lot about Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley and Rep. Tim Ryan.

NEW: It’s not just Iowa and Ohio. Trump also has scaled back TV ads significantly in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Minnesota — signaling a retreat from the Midwest. buzzfeednews.com/article/henryg…
Besides being dark in IA and OH, Trump campaign has canceled $2 million in ad reservations in both MI and WI since early September. And in MN, Trump has chopped about $5 million from the TV budget. buzzfeednews.com/article/henryg…
All of this shows the cash crunch Trump is in. Meanwhile, Biden is making his most aggressive play in Ohio yet. buzzfeednews.com/article/henryg…

Ex-Rhode Island Rep. Claudine Schneider and other former congressional Republicans have launched Republicans for Integrity, an "ad hoc" group that will target Republican incumbents this fall. republicansforintegrity.org
Other founding members of Republicans for Integrity: ex-Rep. Kolbe (AZ), ex-Sen. Durenberger (MN), ex-Rep. Clinger (PA), and ex-Rep. McCloskey (CA). All were anti-Trump in 2016. Schneider and Durenberger openly supported Clinton.
Schneider tells me the group will not accept donations or form as a super PAC or 501c3/4. Efforts will include op-ed writing and earned media. So, not a massive media campaign. But ...
