  "summary": "Ohio Rep. Max Miller has denied allegations of abuse made by his ex-wife, Emily Moreno. In a video posted to social media, Miller stated that the allegations have damaged his reputation and caused pain, but he vowed to continue his reelection campaign.\n\nThe allegations against Miller have been public for years and have recently drawn increased scrutiny. According to Emily Moreno, Miller scalded, hit, and threatened her during their marriage. Miller has denied these allegations. The two share a young daughter and have been involved in a contentious custody battle.\n\nMiller's ex-wife has also asked a court to issue a restraining order blocking him from contacting her lawyer, citing repeated physical and verbal altercations. Miller has pledged to stay in the race, saying \"I'm not dropping out of this race and I'll win in November.\"",
