  "account": "Democrat Brian Poindexter has beaten Republican Rep. Max Miller in Ohio's seventh congressional district race, with the Associated Press declaring the result before 1:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday. The race was dominated by allegations of domestic abuse against Miller, which he has denied. Miller's ex-wife, Emily Moreno, accused him of domestic violence, including incidents of throwing hot water on her, holding a gun to her head, and injuring their daughter's collarbone. However, a county prosecutor's office found insufficient evidence to bring a case against Miller in the daughter's injury case. Former White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham also accused Miller of domestic abuse during their romantic relationship during Trump's first term, filing a restraining order against him. Miller, a former Marine, has served in Congress since 2023 and previously worked as a White House aide during Trump's first presidential term. Miller had previously compared his situation to Trump's allegations during the 2016 presidential campaign, stating he would continue serving despite the false allegations. The House Ethics Committee was reviewing Miller's allegations, and Republican Sen. Bernie Moreno called on Miller to step down from his position.",
