  1. With just days to go before the Ohio Republican primary election, the three-way Republican Senate primary race in Ohio has turned into a food fight, fueling concerns about former President Donald J. Trump’s favored candidate, Bernie Moreno.

    The contest on Tuesday to decide who will face Senator Sherrod Brown has been contentious for months, with Mr. #Moreno, a wealthy former car dealer who has never held elected office, struggling to outrun his rivals, State Senator Matt #Dolan and Secretary of State Frank #LaRose.

    But in recent weeks, a handful of independent surveys have indicated that Mr. Dolan, a more traditional conservative with deep pockets of his own, is gaining traction.
    On Monday, Mr. Dolan received the endorsement of Gov. Mike #DeWine of Ohio
    — after gaining backing last week from another statewide Republican, former Senator Rob #Portman.
    That same day, Mr. Trump’s campaign announced that the former president would appear alongside Mr. Moreno on Saturday in Dayton, widely interpreted as a sign that Mr. Moreno could benefit from an 11th-hour boost.
    (The former president had planned to attend a rally in Arizona but was redirected because of concerns about Mr. Dolan's surge in internal polling, according to two people familiar with the planning.)
    In the homestretch, Mr. Dolan and groups supporting him have outspent both Mr. Moreno and Mr. LaRose, blanketing the airwaves with attacks highlighting inconsistencies in Mr. Moreno’s record that could be of concern in a Republican primary, such as the more liberal views on immigration he espoused in the past.
    Simultaneously, Mr. Moreno and his backers have portrayed Mr. Dolan as not sufficiently supportive of Mr. Trump.

  2. 👀 🧨

    Those anti-freedom transphobic hyperbolic asshats were granted some immoral grace in Ohio. NO more transition surgery for the minors trapped in the wrong physical gender.

    Per CNN.

    #Ohio Republican Gov. Mike #DeWine announced an executive order on Friday that #bans gender-transition #surgeries for minors.

    The ban, which takes effect immediately, comes one week after DeWine vetoed broader #legislation that would have barred #transgender youth from receiving #gender-affirming care.

  4. Ohio House Republicans introduce two bills to tweak Issue 2, marijuana law.

    DeWine and others want something passed hurriedly by next week, Dec 7th when use and home cultivating becomes legal.

    Some, including Gov #DeWine, want to make #issue2 impotent, without being accused of repealing. Things like letting local communities not only ban the commercial sale of #marijuana but to ban use of it in private homes. #ohio
