Sherrod Brown to launch a comeback attempt for Senate in Ohio
- Former Senator Sherrod Brown plans to run for the U.S. Senate seat in Ohio in 2026 against incumbent Jon Husted.
- Brown's decision comes several months after his 2024 loss to Bernie Moreno and follows a period of uncertainty regarding his next steps in politics.
- In January 2025, Governor Mike DeWine appointed Jon Husted to occupy the Senate seat left open by Vice President JD Vance’s resignation; Husted must secure a win in a 2026 special election to continue serving.
- In his December 2024 farewell speech, Brown promised, “It’s not, I promise you, the last time you’ll hear from me,” signaling his intent to seek a comeback.
- Brown’s candidacy bolsters Democrats’ chances in Ohio, though Husted remains favored in this Republican-leaning state with control of the seat critical for Senate majority.
