The Columbus Dispatch Editorial Board endorsedSherrod Brown for U.S. Senate over Jon Husted earlier in October.
With the election hitting its final days, we've recapped five reasons for our decision below as a service to voters..
The entire endorsement can be found by clicking this link: This career politician has failed Ohioans. That's why The Dispatch endorses his rival for Senate.
5: Data centers
4: Bipartisanship
Brown has worked with former senators Rob Portman and JD Vance and others to get things done for Ohio. He even partnered with President Donald Trump on trade.
3: Ohioans
Brown has spent his decades-long career in politics fighting for workers and everyday Ohioans.
2: Voter rights
Brown opposes Trump's
terrible SAVE Act and says he’ll defend access to the ballot.
1: Accountability.
This is the biggest reason for our endorsement.
Congress should be a check on presidential power. Republicans have failed to hold President Donald Trump accountable. Husted has stood with Trump when she should have been challenging him.
We believe he’ll serve the needs of Ohioans even when doing so is tough.
Like other editorials, endorsements are fact-based assessments of issues of importance to the communities we serve. These are not the opinions of our reporting staff members, who strive for neutrality in their reporting.
