NEW the #OHSen front — but for 2024: Matt Dolan emailed county GOP chairs in Ohio this week, hinting at his interest in challenging Democrat Sherrod Brown. "In recent days, I’ve been encouraged by the calls, emails, and texts I have received ..." he wrote.
Dolan finished 3rd in this year's Senate primary, the only one who didn't cozy up to Trump and who said 2020 was on the level. "What we witnessed nationally should convince us the country is ready for substantive candidates not personalities and election deniers," he wrote.
Sherrod Brown has said he's running again in 2024, and the list of Republicans looking to run for what will be one of the GOP's top targets that year could be long: Secretary of State Frank LaRose, Attorney General Dave Yost, businessman Bernie Moreno (who briefly ran this year).

Tim Ryan to J.D. Vance in opening minutes of tonight's #OHSen debate: "JD, you keep talking about Nancy Pelosi. If you want to run against Nancy Pelosi move back to San Francisco and run against Nancy Pelosi."
J.D. Vance has a habit of bringing up Ryan's ads all the time and basically reinforcing their message. He just did it again by mentioning the ad where Ryan talks about how he and his wife don't always agree.
The words we've heard most so far in the #OHSen debate:

Nancy

Pelosi

Ass

An #OH11 thread with some inside baseball history

In 2009, Nina Turner split with Cleveland's Black political establishment to back a ballot measure meant to reform the corrupted county government. Turner's side won. The Black newspaper vilified her.

cleveland.com/metro/2009/11/…
Despite that, Turner at the time was seen as a prospect for mayor or the new county executive position. Instead she launched a primary campaign against then-Rep. Marcia Fudge.
Turner dropped the primary challenge idea pretty quickly, as Fudge had the Black establishment firmly in her corner, and that definitely matters in #OH11. Fudge endorsed Turner's secretary of state run in 2014.

NEW: Republican Rep. Anthony Gonzalez had some strong words about the future of the GOP today during a forum with @TheCityClub of Cleveland. nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
"I think continuing to perpetuate falsehoods, especially ones that are dangerous that led to the violence on Jan. 6, is a recipe for disaster for the party, but it’s also horribly irresponsible," Rep. Anthony Gonzalez said. nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
More from Gonzalez, who was censured by the Ohio GOP on state of the Republicans: "Sometimes when I hear us talk about the state of our party, we talk as if we somehow won an election. Right now, my concern is we’re trying to excommunicate our own voters." nbcnews.com/politics/donal…

Hello from the Ohio Political Summit in Strongsville, where Matt Gaetz will speak this afternoon to a room of suburban Republicans. A bunch of Senate and gov candidates have backed out of the event. Right now attendees are watching a video of Trump’s 2020 campaign kickoff.
A scene from the parking lot.
Just spoke with Dave Desser, a gentleman from Toledo who is leading a "No More DeWine" effort. He tells me he'd rather vote for a Democrat than someone he considers a "RINO."

"I'd vote for Nan Whaley before I vote for Mike DeWine."

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…

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.
