Max Miller remained in his Ohio reelection race after the deadline for Republicans to replace him as their nominee had effectively passed. He could still withdraw, but Republicans would then have no nominee in the district.
Ohio Republicans had until Monday at 4 p.m. to name a replacement, but local officials needed at least two days’ notice to meet. Miller did not withdraw by Saturday, the point by which the replacement process would have needed to begin. He could still withdraw and have his name removed from the ballot.
