On March 16, 2024, Republican Senate candidate Bernie Moreno took the stage before former President Donald Trump at a Buckeye Values PAC Rally in Vandalia, Ohio. Just a few weeks later, NBC News projected Moreno as the winner of Ohio’s Republican Senate primary, positioning him for a high stakes election against incumbent Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown in November.
In his victory speech, Moreno stressed the importance of party unity, emphasizing that the mission is to defeat Sherrod Brown in the upcoming election. Despite facing tough competition, including State Sen. Matt Dolan who had the endorsement of Ohio’s Governor Mike DeWine, Moreno emerged victorious.
Frank LaRose, another candidate in the primary, held third place due to being out-funded by Moreno and Dolan. Moreno’s win is seen as a sign of Trump’s continued influence in the Republican party, with his endorsement carrying significant weight in the 2024 election.
Moreno, a 57-year-old entrepreneur with no prior political experience, defeating a career politician like Dolan adds to Trump’s comeback narrative. Despite Trump’s losses in the 2020 presidential election and key races in 2022, Moreno’s success suggests a resurgence of Trump’s sway over the GOP establishment.
As Moreno prepares to face off against Sherrod Brown in November, all eyes will be on Ohio as this high-stakes election unfolds. Stay tuned to Celebrity Beauty Buzz for the latest updates on Bernie Moreno’s campaign and other celebrity political news.
