Is he going to continue that trend for his 3rd US Senate Race in 2024?
Trump won OH in 2016 and 2020 by an 8 percent margin.

(1,889 posts)His elections were in 2006, 2012, and 2018. Both 2006 and 2018 were Dem wave years, and 2012 was Obama's re-election, when Obama won Ohio.
This will be his toughest race yet.
Midwestern Democrat
(820 posts)Nelson went down in Florida; McCaskill went down in Missouri; Heitkamp went down in North Dakota; Donnelly went down in Indiana. Brown in Ohio, Tester in Montana, and Manchin in West Virginia survived - with Brown winning convincingly, while Tester barely cracked 50% and Manchin didn't quite crack 50%. I agree that this will be Brown's toughest race yet and don't know if he can continue to buck the GOP tilt of the state, but his performance in 2018 compared to other red state Democrats gives some hope.
