The most awkward Senate delegation ever?
If Democrat Sherrod Brown wins an Ohio Senate seat, he would have to serve with Republican Bernie Moreno, who defeated him in 2024.
An unusual Senate delegation looms if Democrat Sherrod Brown secures his re-election, according to political analysts. Brown would be paired with Republican Bernie Moreno, who surprisingly bested Brown in the 2024 election. Moreno, a potential power player in the 2028 cycle, could emerge as the leading strategist against Brown if elected.
Senate cycle quirks compel Brown to seek re-election just two years later. Moreno, however, dismissed the prospect of facing Brown again, predicting Jon Husted's victory. Moreno joked that a rematch would be "tempting," suggesting Brown should find employment. The two have not spoken since Moreno's 2024 win and never debated. The hypothetical Brown-Moreno delegation would eclipse even the contentious 2024 matchup between Sen. Jon Tester and former NRSC Chair Steve Daines.
