Rep. Max Miller will remain on Ohio’s general-election ballot after the deadline to replace him passed, despite calls from fellow Republicans to withdraw amid domestic abuse allegations. His decision could make the race more competitive and draw additional Democratic spending.
The deadline for Republicans to replace Miller on the ballot passed Monday, leaving him in the race against Democrat Brian Poindexter. The article says Miller won the district with 51% of the vote in a three-way race two years ago, while the current district map leans Republican. Ohio Sen. Bernie Moreno and the state’s other senator called on Miller to drop out; President Donald Trump did not. The allegations against Miller are attributed to his ex-wife and at least two other women, and Miller has denied concerns about his ability to win.
