OH-SEN: Brown not ruling out run for remainder of Vance's Senate term

Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown (D), who was unseated last week by Republican businessman Bernie Moreno, seems open to a bid to replace Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), who will be leaving the upper chamber to serve as vice president.

“I’m not ruling anything out,” Brown told Politico when asked if he might run for the remainder of Vance’s term.

The Hill has contacted Brown’s press team for further comment.

Brown was one of several incumbent Democrats to lose on Election Day, as Republicans kept control of the House and recaptured the Senate and presidency.

Regardless of what he’s doing next, Brown voiced his commitment to the Democratic Party.

In PA, the Gov appointed interim Sen only serves until a special election is scheduled.

Hopefully at that point Brown can induce all the happy fuzzy feelings of a time before we were damned by this trumpfecta.
