Money in this race

From FEC filings for 2025–26. Outside spending is money groups spent on their own for or against a candidate, reported within 24 or 48 hours as the election nears. Raised is the campaign's own fundraising, as of its latest quarterly report. Largest donors come from each outside spender's own FEC receipts, with each donor's share of its itemized receipts; donors under $100,000 are not named.

Glittering Generalities: The phrase uses vague, emotionally positive framing to position Brown as a champion of ordinary people without providing any specific policy substance — for example: 'for the people not the powerful'

Black-and-White Fallacy: The sentence implies a binary opposition between 'the people' and 'the powerful', leaving no room for nuance or middle ground — for example: 'for the people not the powerful'

Appeal to FearLoaded LanguageExaggeration/HyperboleName CallingCard Stacking50.0% of sentences flagged

Appeal to Fear: The sentence frames gender-affirming care as forced surgery on children to provoke fear and outrage — for example: 'Forcing sex change surgery for young Ohio kids'

Loaded Language: The word 'Forcing' is emotionally charged and implies coercion and harm to children to trigger a visceral reaction — for example: Forcing sex change surgery and radical agenda.

Exaggeration/Hyperbole: The claim grossly overstates the nature of gender-affirming care policies, misrepresenting them as forced surgical procedures on children — for example: 'Forcing sex change surgery for young Ohio kids'

Name Calling: The label 'radical agenda' is used to discredit Sherrod Brown without engaging with his actual policy positions — for example: 'his radical agenda'

Card Stacking: The sentence presents an extreme and unverified characterization of Brown's position as established fact, omitting any nuance or accurate description of the actual policy — for example: 'That's what Sherrod Brown supports'

ALERT: The GOP is catching up in Ohio. We need your support to FLIP this seat BLUE. We’re fighting to fend off Republican incumbents and Flip the Senate in November – and that starts with Ohio. Republican incumbent Jon Husted is one of Trump’s most loyal allies, backed by his enthusiastic endorsement and millions of dollars from the GOP war chest. We’re backed by you. Every dollar you give today helps us maintain our lead in Ohio and secure a Democratic Senate Majority.

Loaded Language: The word 'extreme' is used as an emotionally charged label to frame Sherrod Brown negatively before any evidence is presented — for example: 'How extreme is Sherrod Brown?'

Name Calling: The phrase 'extremist Democrat agenda' uses a derogatory label to discredit the political opponent rather than engage with their actual policy positions — for example: 'extremist Democrat agenda'

Appeal to Fear: The sentence frames Drag Queen Story Hour as the beginning of a dangerous progression, implying it is a gateway to harm — for example: It starts with Drag Queen Story Hour, It ends with kids going under the knife and Vote NO on Brown.

Loaded Language: The phrase 'Drag Queen Story Hour' is deployed as an emotionally charged trigger term designed to provoke a negative reaction in a target audience — for example: Drag Queen Story Hour and kids going under the knife.

Black-and-White Fallacy: The sentence presents a false linear inevitability — that one thing necessarily leads to another extreme outcome — collapsing a complex policy debate into a binary slippery slope — for example: 'It starts... It ends...'

Exaggeration/Hyperbole: The claim that story hour inevitably leads to surgical procedures on children is an extreme overstatement unsupported by evidence — for example: 'It ends with kids going under the knife.'

Card Stacking: By placing Brown's name immediately after the fear-laden claim without context or nuance, the sentence implies he endorses child harm, omitting any actual policy position — for example: 'Sherrod Brown supports it.'

Name Calling: The sentence functions as a derogatory label by association, linking Brown to the previously constructed image of child harm without substantive argument — for example: 'Sherrod Brown supports it.'

False Urgency: The imperative 'Vote NO' is a direct call to action designed to channel the manufactured fear into an immediate electoral response — for example: 'Vote NO on Brown.'

Loaded Language: The phrase 'Government-run health care' uses negatively charged framing to evoke distrust of government control — for example: Government-run health care, Sex changes for kids and Men in women's locker rooms.

Appeal to Fear: The phrase implies a threatening scenario of government takeover of personal health decisions to provoke anxiety — for example: Government-run health care, Sex changes for kids and Men in women's locker rooms. Ohio: VOTE NO on Sherrod Brown November 3.

False Urgency: The specific date 'November 3' combined with 'VOTE NO' creates artificial time pressure to act before careful deliberation can occur — for example: VOTE NO on Sherrod Brown November 3

Card Stacking: The passage presents only alarming, one-sided claims associated with the candidate without any balancing information, selectively stacking negative associations — for example: Government-run health care. Sex changes for kids. Men in women's locker rooms

Scapegoating: The phrase implicitly blames Sherrod Brown for a threatening policy affecting children, attributing a complex social issue to a single political figure — for example: 'Sex changes for kids'

Black-and-White Fallacy: The message implies that voting against Sherrod Brown is the only way to prevent these feared outcomes, presenting no middle ground or nuanced policy alternatives — for example: VOTE NO on Sherrod Brown

Name Calling: The phrase 'radical extremists' is a derogatory label used to discredit a group without addressing their actual positions or arguments — for example: 'radical extremists are taking over'

Loaded Language: Emotionally charged words like 'radical extremists' and 'taking over' are chosen to trigger alarm and fear rather than convey neutral facts — for example: 'radical extremists are taking over'

Appeal to Fear: The claim that 'radical extremists are taking over' is designed to create anxiety about a threatening group seizing control, pressuring the audience toward a specific reaction — for example: 'radical extremists are taking over'

Repetition: The short declarative 'He always does' reinforces the prior claim about Brown's compliance through emphatic repetition of the same accusation, hammering the point for rhetorical effect — for example: 'He always does'

Black-and-White Fallacy: The sentence presents only two options — voting with 'Washington Democrats' or voting with 'Ohioans' — implying these are mutually exclusive and that no overlap or nuance is possible — for example: framing a senator's votes as either for a distant political class or for his constituents, with no middle ground

Appeal to Prejudice: The framing exploits in-group/out-group identity by contrasting 'Washington Democrats' as an alien outside force against 'Ohioans' as the authentic local in-group, implying Brown betrays his own people — for example: positioning a senator as loyal to distant elites rather than 'real' constituents

Folks just aren’t chipping in as much as we thought they would – even though the latest poll of Ohio shows this race statistically tied and we urgently need more resources to surge ahead. So I’m going to try something out of the ordinary. I’m going to lower my ask to $1 in the hopes that every person reading this message donates to help us close the gap. If you can give $1, thank you. If you can give more, that’s great. The most important thing is that we see thousands of donations come through the door today.

False Urgency: The imperative 'Get ready to fire him AGAIN!' creates artificial urgency and pressure to act, discouraging deliberation — for example: 'Get ready to fire him AGAIN!'

Bandwagon Appeal: The use of 'We fired' and 'fire him AGAIN' implies collective prior action and pressures the audience to join in repeating it, leveraging crowd conformity — for example: 'We fired... fire him AGAIN'

Black-and-White Fallacy: The sentence frames Brown's record as a binary choice: either you support 'Ohio's values' or you support the 'trans agenda,' leaving no room for nuance — for example: 'putting the trans agenda ahead of Ohio's values'

Name Calling: Labeling Brown's positions as a 'radical agenda' is a derogatory characterization meant to discredit him rather than address specific policies — for example: 'his radical agenda'

Loaded Language: The phrase 'progressive takeover' uses emotionally charged language to frame political opposition as a hostile seizure of power rather than a policy disagreement — for example: 'progressive takeover'

Loaded LanguageExaggeration/HyperboleAppeal to FearCard StackingRepetitionName CallingBlack-and-White Fallacy85.7% of sentences flagged

Loaded Language: The phrase 'voted how he was told' implies Brown is a puppet with no independent judgment — emotionally charged framing rather than factual description. — for example: voted how he was told, open borders and sex changes for kids.

Exaggeration/Hyperbole: Claiming 50 years of total compliance with instructions is an extreme overstatement that ignores any independent votes Brown may have cast. — for example: For 50 years, Sherrod Brown voted how he was told and his vote never does.

Appeal to Fear: The list of policy positions is framed as threats — higher taxes, open borders, and gender-related procedures for children — designed to provoke anxiety about Brown's record. — for example: Higher taxes, open borders, sex changes for kids and Now, extremists are taking over and Brown will fall in line.

Card Stacking: Selectively lists only the most inflammatory characterizations of Brown's positions without context, counterarguments, or nuance, presenting a one-sided picture.

Repetition: The idea that Brown blindly follows orders is repeated here ('gave it every time'), reinforcing the puppet framing established in sentence 1. — for example: gave it every time, He always does and times changed, his vote never does.

Name Calling: 'Washington Democrats' is used as a derogatory label implying a distant, out-of-touch political machine that controls Brown.

Black-and-White Fallacy: Implies Brown has no choice but to 'fall in line' with extremists, presenting no possibility of independent action or moderation.

Loaded Language: The word 'SCANDAL' in all caps and 'massive, billion-dollar bailout' use emotionally charged language to trigger outrage — for example: SCANDAL, massive, billion-dollar bailout and Ohio is getting screwed.

Exaggeration/Hyperbole: Describing the bailout as 'massive' and 'billion-dollar' stacks superlatives to amplify the perceived scale of wrongdoing — for example: massive, billion-dollar bailout

Conspiracy Appeal: Implies a hidden plot to keep information from the public, suggesting shadowy actors deliberately concealed the truth — for example: We weren't supposed to know

Appeal to Prejudice: Uses 'us' vs 'they' framing to create an in-group/out-group dynamic, positioning ordinary Ohioans against powerful elites — for example: they just want us to pay the price

Appeal to Fear: Implies ordinary citizens will suffer financial harm as a result of the alleged conspiracy, creating anxiety to drive action — for example: pay the price

False Urgency: The imperative 'Find out' combined with the emotionally loaded framing pressures the audience to act immediately without deliberation — for example: Find out how Ohio is getting screwed

Folks, we just got some news that could turn this race on its head: According to The New York Times, Elon Musk is planning to pour more than $100 million into buying the Senate – and Ohio is one of his first targets. And he’s not doing this alone. His operation is coordinating with the Koch network and other dark-money groups to flood the airwaves and drown us out. This is the same Elon Musk who gutted programs that Ohio families rely on and became the world’s first trillionaire while everyday people struggled with rising costs. Now, he wants to buy Ohio's Senate seat too. We can’t let Elon Musk and other billionaire backers decide who represents Ohio. That’s why my team just launched an urgent $200,000 rapid-response goal, and I need your help RIGHT NOW to hit it. This kind of money could make or break our campaign. And Musk has virtually unlimited resources to use to try and buy access, power, and control. This race is already shaping up to be the most expensive Senate race in U.S. history, and now Musk is about to hit us with a tsunami of tens of millions more. We have no room for error. If we don’t respond NOW, Musk’s money will tip this race before we can fight back. That’s why our $200,000 rapid-response goal matters so much. We need to prove that our grassroots team won’t let a billionaire buy this Senate seat. Your $5 might not seem like much against $100 million, but believe me, everything adds up when thousands of folks chip in a few dollars at a time. Please chip in today if you can.

I just took a huge risk. Help me make sure it pays off. I’m no stranger to tough fights. Heck, I’m the only Democrat in Ohio who’s won statewide over the past two decades. But with election analysts projecting that spending could reach $749 million in this race – breaking the record for most expensive U.S. Senate race in history – and a recent poll showing me 3 points down, I had to do something I don’t usually do to fight back immediately. I made the decision to go up with new campaign ads, knowing full well that we didn’t have the money in the budget for them yet. The GOP is hammering me with false attack ads, and we have to reach voters with the truth before it’s too late. That’s what these new ads will do – but now, I need your help to keep them running all across Ohio. Will you chip in before the midnight deadline so we can spread our message far and wide, respond to the GOP’s attacks, and flip this crucial seat? I just took a huge risk.

Friend, this is a five-alarm fire. NYT reports Elon Musk is planning to funnel $100M+ to buy the Senate for Republicans, and Ohio is his top target. He’s teaming up with Koch network's dark money to bury us in ads. This is the guy who gutted programs that Ohio families rely on while becoming a trillionaire. We're fighting back. Help us reach our $200K emergency goal by rushing $25 to prove the ultra wealthy can't buy Ohio's Senate seat. Hey, it's Mark Kelly. I've spent my life around leaders – in the Navy, NASA, and the Senate. And I can tell you: Sherrod Brown is a true leader and one of the toughest fighters for working families I've ever met. I watched him up close in the Senate. When a vote was hard, he asked one thing: Is this good for the people who make this country work? And he never sold out. Not once. That's rare in Washington. Now he's in a battleground race in Ohio. It’s a toss-up race that could decide which party controls the Senate. The GOP is pummeling him with $100M in attack ads because they know they might lose this seat. Will you chip in to help him fight back? Look, I've been the candidate buried in attacks, wondering if support would come through. It did, because good people stepped up. Sherrod has spent his whole career having working people's backs. Let's have his now. Thank you, Mark Kelly
Appeal to FearFalse UrgencyLoaded LanguageConspiracy AppealAppeal to PrejudiceExaggeration/HyperboleTransferGlittering GeneralitiesBandwagon Appeal61.9% of sentences flagged

Appeal to Fear: The phrase 'five-alarm fire' creates extreme urgency and anxiety to override rational thinking — for example: 'five-alarm fire'

False Urgency: The dramatic framing implies an immediate crisis requiring instant action without deliberation — for example: 'this is a five-alarm fire'

Loaded Language: The phrase 'buy the Senate' uses emotionally charged language implying corruption and illegitimacy rather than neutral political spending — for example: buy the Senate and bury us in ads.

Conspiracy Appeal: References to 'dark money' and shadowy coordination between powerful actors implies a hidden sinister plot against the reader — for example: 'Koch network's dark money'

Appeal to Prejudice: The use of 'us' constructs a clear in-group identity under threat from powerful out-group actors — for example: 'bury us in ads'

Exaggeration/Hyperbole: 'Trillionaire' is a wildly exaggerated claim as no individual has ever achieved trillionaire status, making this an extreme overstatement beyond what evidence supports — for example: becoming a trillionaire

Transfer: The speaker borrows authority and legitimacy from respected institutions (Navy, NASA, Senate) to establish credibility before making a political endorsement — for example: invoking military and space agency credentials to validate a political claim

Glittering Generalities: Vague, emotionally positive labels like 'true leader' and 'toughest fighters for working families' sound noble but carry no specific substantive meaning — for example: 'true leader' as rhetorical flourish without concrete evidence

Bandwagon Appeal: The inclusive 'Let's' implies a collective movement and social pressure to join in supporting Sherrod, nudging the audience toward conformity through implied group action — for example: 'Let's have his now'

A woman with dementia and a walker, dumped at a shelter that already had 100 people on its waiting list. Seven Ohio nursing homes did this, federal inspectors found — and Jon Husted co-wrote the 2002 law that made those facilities harder to sue, cutting the window to file suit and blocking inspection findings from court. He's since taken more than $1 million from the nursing home industry, and NBC4 found nursing home PACs and lobbyists have given at least $34,000 more to his Senate campaign this year alone.

Loaded Language: Emotionally charged words and phrases are used to trigger a negative reaction — for example: 'rain down taxpayer benefits' and 'illegal immigrants'

Name Calling: The label 'Washington liberals' is used as a derogatory tag to discredit the named politicians rather than engage with their actual policy positions — for example: 'Washington liberals like Bernie Sanders'

Scapegoating: Named politicians are blamed for directing taxpayer resources toward a disfavored out-group, implying they are responsible for harm to ordinary citizens — for example: 'voted to rain down taxpayer benefits...on illegal immigrants'

False Urgency: The 'JUST IN' framing creates an artificial sense of breaking urgency around what is described as a decades-long pattern, pressuring the reader to react immediately — for example: '📰 JUST IN'

Card Stacking: The sentence presents an unverified and misleading claim — that Sanders and Brown voted to give Social Security and Medicaid to illegal immigrants — as if it were straightforward fact, omitting that these programs are legally restricted from undocumented immigrants — for example: 'voted to rain down taxpayer benefits like Social Security and Medicaid on illegal immigrants'

The Senate adjourned for its August recess after passing a government funding bill, confirming Todd Blanche as attorney general, and advancing a Russia sanctions package, but the SAVE America Act was not brought to a vote. Sen. Jon Husted pushed to bring the election security bill to the Senate floor, arguing it would strengthen voter integrity through measures such as photo ID requirements, but Democrats blocked the effort and Republicans lacked the support needed to advance it. GOP leaders now plan to revisit elements of the legislation through a budget reconciliation package when Congress returns in September, which would allow Republicans to bypass a Senate filibuster.

Husted reiterated his support for the SAVE America Act and voter ID requirements, saying, "We're also trying to get done to make sure President Trump has the team that he needs to govern and run America."

Sen. Jon Husted honored World War II veteran Sgt. Wayne Franklin Phillips on the Senate floor ahead of his 100th birthday, recognizing his military service during the Battle of the Bulge and his role in helping secure freedom during World War II. Husted also praised Phillips' decades of public service after returning home, noting his work as a Henry County commissioner, community leader, and founder of the family-owned Phillips Oil Company, where he still works nearly every day. Husted said Phillips embodies the values of the "Greatest Generation" and urged Americans to honor the service and sacrifices of World War II veterans so their stories are never forgotten.

🚨 U.S. Sen. Jon Husted (R-OH) took to the Senate floor to defend Ohio's photo voter ID law, arguing the measure boosted — rather than suppressed — electoral participation, and calling for similar requirements to be adopted nationwide. Sen. Husted pointed to Ohio's 71.71% turnout in the 2024 presidential election, claiming the state recorded its second-highest voter turnout across the last four presidential elections since the photo ID law took effect. Husted, who served as Ohio Secretary of State from 2011 to 2019 before being appointed to the Senate in January 2025, framed the data as proof that voter ID laws do not disenfranchise voters. His remarks came during Senate debate over the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act — legislation that would require proof of citizenship at voter registration and photo ID at the polls. The bill, sponsored in the Senate by Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) and championed by President Trump, passed the House in February 2026 and was also folded into the FY2027 National Defense Authorization Act. Ohio's own photo ID law, House Bill 458, was signed by Gov. Mike DeWine (R) on January 6, 2023. Ohio Secretary of State data shows the number of ballots rejected due to missing ID rose from 698 in November 2022 to 3,820 in November 2023 after the law took effect. Do voter ID laws strengthen election integrity, or do rising ballot rejections signal a barrier to access? 👇 #Ohio #VoterID #SAVEAct #ElectionIntegrity #SenHusted #Breaking

re: my decision. I’m no stranger to tough fights or razor-thin margins. But shortly after Republican Jon Husted and the GOP started pouring a combined $81 million into this race to defeat me, I had to do something out of the ordinary. I made the risky decision to approve new digital ads – knowing full well that we don’t have the money for them yet. With experts predicting that this race could be the closest in the country, and with polls showing us neck and neck, failing to respond in this moment could put our chances of flipping Ohio in jeopardy. But now, I need your help to close this critical budget gap. Will you chip in before the midnight deadline so we can reach more voters with our ads and win in Ohio? I’m getting drowned out by $133 million in attack ad spending. We need today to be one of our biggest fundraising days so we can fight back. I know most folks aren’t able to chip in right now, but I’m hoping you’ll be the exception. If you want to flip Ohio and take back the Senate this November, will you please donate?

I’m getting drowned out by $133 million in attack ad spending. We need today to be one of our biggest fundraising days so we can fight back. I know most folks aren’t able to chip in right now, but I’m hoping you’ll be the exception. If you want to flip Ohio and take back the Senate this November, will you please donate?

Folks, this isn’t good. The GOP and dark-money PACs are pouring millions into Ohio to defeat me, and it looks like their attacks are working: New polling shows me 3 points down to Republican Jon Husted in this Senate race. Without your immediate grassroots support, I’ll have no chance to fight back and win. So please, will you chip in whatever you can today?

ALERT: SCOTUS hands Donald Trump a HUGE win The Supreme Court just issued the worst ruling for campaign finances since Citizens United. This is a Republican power grab, plain and simple. And the truth is, it will be a disaster for our chances of flipping Ohio and the Senate if we don’t act immediately. Can you rush an emergency donation ASAP to help us fight back? Do you want to flip Ohio? Please read:
Loaded LanguageName CallingAppeal to FearFalse Urgency50.0% of sentences flagged

Loaded Language: The phrase 'power grab' is emotionally charged, implying illegitimate seizure of control rather than describing a neutral political action — for example: 'power grab'

Name Calling: Labeling the action as a 'Republican power grab' frames the opposing party as acting in bad faith without addressing the substance of the action — for example: 'Republican power grab'

Appeal to Fear: The sentence warns of a 'disaster' for electoral chances to create anxiety and pressure the reader into action — for example: 'it will be a disaster'

False Urgency: The phrase 'if we don't act immediately' imposes artificial time pressure to prevent deliberation — for example: if we don't act immediately, rush and emergency.

🚨 Sen. Jon Husted takes to the Senate floor to honor Rittman Police Sgt. Scott Ries, a 31-year law enforcement veteran killed in the line of duty on July 5, 2026. Sgt. Ries, 54, was shot and killed while responding to a disturbance call near 90 Chippewa Trail in Rittman, Ohio. Upon arrival, officers came under immediate gunfire. Four other officers and a Wayne County Sheriff's Office K-9 were also shot. Sgt. Ries had served the Rittman Police Department for 10 years and was promoted to sergeant in 2023 — a badge his wife, Michelle, proudly pinned on him herself. Sen. Husted honored Sgt. Ries as a devoted husband, father, and community member, keeping Michelle, their children, and his fellow officers in his prayers. Gov. Mike DeWine ordered flags flown at half-staff across Wayne County and at the Ohio Statehouse in his memory. Sgt. Ries served Ohio for 31 years — a true public servant who made the ultimate sacrifice protecting others. #SgtScottRies #RittmanPolice #OhioLawEnforcement #LineDuty #NeverForget #Breaking

I have some tough news: New polling reported by The New York Times shows me 1 point down to Jon Husted in Ohio's battleground race. Ohio is the most competitive and important race of the midterm elections, and poll after poll confirms that it will be a dead heat. Will you chip in right now to help us surge ahead and win in Ohio?
Exaggeration/HyperboleBandwagon AppealFalse Urgency66.7% of sentences flagged

Exaggeration/Hyperbole: Claiming Ohio is 'the most competitive and important race' is an absolute superlative that overstates its significance beyond what evidence supports — for example: 'the most competitive and important race of the midterm elections'

Bandwagon Appeal: Citing 'poll after poll' implies overwhelming consensus to pressure the reader into accepting the framing as settled truth — for example: 'poll after poll confirms'

False Urgency: The phrase 'right now' creates artificial time pressure to prevent deliberation and prompt an immediate financial response — for example: 'chip in right now'

Democrats Take Senate Majority.” You feel proud knowing you chipped in to help push us over the finish line. Your morning coffee has never tasted better.

That’s why we’re asking you to chip in today to help make the first scenario come true. Sherrod needs your support to win in Ohio and bring our fight for working people to the Senate.

If everyone reading this chipped in $25 to our campaign right now, we would be able to reach our midnight fundraising goal in minutes. But we know that $25 is a lot, so not everyone can or will make that donation. That’s why we’re doing something different today. We’re lowering our ask to just $1. Yes, just $1. That’s not a typo. We figure that if everyone gives just $1, we can still continue closing our budget gap in a meaningful way – and it will show the GOP dark-money PACs spending big against me that I’ve got a massive grassroots team by my side that’s not giving up without a fight. So please, will you chip in $1 today to fuel our movement, flip Ohio, and take back the Senate? Do you want to flip Ohio? Please read:

Don't look away. First, polling showed me trailing my corrupt opponent, Jon Husted, by 1 point. Then, National Republicans announced they're pouring $81 million into Ohio to stop our campaign – the most they're spending in any battleground state. And now, a brand new poll has me slipping behind, this time trailing Husted by 3 points. Their attacks are working. And they’re just getting started. Millions of dollars of ads targeting me are hitting the airwaves soon. The only way we can win this toss up race and flip Ohio and the Senate is with a massive outpouring of grassroots support today. We haven’t hit our $200,000 emergency goal yet, so I'm asking you personally: Will you rush a donation now to help us respond to the GOP's attacks before it's too late? Don't look away.

Appeal to Fear: Creates anxiety about being overwhelmed by powerful outside forces (super PACs pouring in millions) to trigger an emotional response and implied call to action — for example: framing the situation as a dire threat requiring urgent support.

Loaded Language: Uses emotionally charged words to frame the opponent's actions as malicious and dishonest rather than simply competitive — for example: 'smearing my name'.

False Urgency: The phrase 'I'm falling behind' combined with the description of mounting opposition creates artificial time pressure implying immediate action is needed — for example: 'I'm falling behind' signals a crisis moment demanding response.

Is there anything I can say to convince you to chip in to my Senate campaign today? What if I told you that experts at The Cook Political Report just upgraded our chances of winning, now officially ranking this race a Toss Up? What if I told you that the GOP is set to pour almost $80 million into Ohio to defeat me – more than in any other battleground in the country? What if I told you that they’re spending that much because the path to retaking Senate control runs straight through Ohio – and new polling shows this race neck and neck? So please, will you chip in what you can to help me flip Ohio AND the Senate? Folks, this isn’t good. The GOP and dark-money PACs are pouring millions into Ohio to defeat me, and it looks like their attacks are working: New polling shows me 3 points down to Republican Jon Husted in this Senate race. Without your immediate grassroots support, I’ll have no chance to fight back and win. So please, will you chip in whatever you can today?

Not paid ads. These come from an officeholder's official channel: they are publicly funded and may not contain campaign content, so they are a different kind of speech from the ads above and are not counted with them. We show the same technique analysis; their claims are not checked, because an office's figures are mostly documented by its own press releases.

I'm here outside the Lima Tank Plant. I was just in there watching the workers build uh the tanks that keep America's war fighters safe. And we're going to get more funding for this facility, a new generation of investment to upgrade this place to make the the next uh generation of weapon systems, which will provide secure jobs for the people that work at the Lima Tank Plant, and the 227 companies around the state of Ohio that are part of the supply chain for this. So, very, very important facility. It's important that we uh continue to support uh the best weapon system for America's military, and we make them right here in Ohio.

Cathy Will, Lancaster, Ohio. I am a lifelong Ohio citizen. I uh was in the process of registering for Medicare and had worked with the local office. I was told that I wouldn't be able to register because the time had lapsed. So, I reached out to the senator's office and um I I was amazed, absolutely amazed at the contact. I do believe I received a response from an email within a day or two. Oh, the team at Senator Husted's office is wonderful with a capital W. The response was so timely. The team was able to approach their contacts in the Medicare office and explain the situation. I think it was approximately 1 month it was handled and I had my part B coverage. I received it in a timely fashion and I was able to make my appointments to take care of my medical concerns. If you have an issue that you're having trouble with resolution, I highly recommend it calling Senator Husted's office and talking to someone there. There's also an online um possibility and they are wonderful communication and also wonderful productivity and resolution.

Husted: It's time to empower first-time homebuyers

Official office video · Senator Jon Husted video · 1:07from 2026-08-20
When I got appointed to the US Senate, I committed myself to focusing on issues that matter to working families in Ohio. One of those things is making life more affordable for them. Home ownership is one of those issues. Home ownership has long been considered part of achieving your version of the American dream. But it's become difficult for many working families to afford housing and particularly for young people to have the hope that they can buy a home. That's why I'm leading a bipartisan firsttime home buyer empowerment act. This bill would allow people to use unused 529 college savings, of which 40% of Ohioans with children have these accounts. It would allow them tax-free to use these accounts towards a down payment for first-time home purchase. By freeing up existing resources, we're helping Ohioans get closer to buying that first home so they can achieve their version of the American dream. It's so important that we help young people off to a good start. Giving them flexibility on how they use 529 accounts is one of those things.

Husted: It's time for a national voter ID law 08 08 26

Official office video · Senator Jon Husted video · 1:22from 2026-08-08
Madam President, >> the gentleman from Ohio is recognized. >> Madame President, using a photo ID to vote is common sense. It's an issue Americans broadly support. So tonight, this early morning, I'm offering a clean, simple, straightforward bill to require a photo ID to vote in America. Voters can use a driver's license, a stateisssued ID, passport, military or veterans ID, or tribal ID. No additional restrictions, no tricks, no games, no prohibitions on absentee voting. 36 states require some form of voter ID. Photo ID laws have been tested in elections across this country and they work. So, so tonight I'm asking my colleagues to answer one simple question. Should you have to prove who you are when you vote? Americans think we should, and tonight we'll find out if their senators agree. I urge my colleagues to vote yes on this bill to establish a nationwide photo ID standards and give Americans better run, honest, and fair elections. Madame President, I yield the floor.

What this page is

  • An ad is on this page because its own "Paid for by" line is a campaign in this race; or it comes from a national Senate group and ran mostly in OH; or it ran mostly in OH and names a candidate — unless its sponsor is a campaign for some other office. Ads from outside groups appear alongside the campaigns' own.
  • Campaigns run one text as many separate ads. Identical text from the same sponsor is one card here, marked with its number of variants.
  • A technique is a specific manipulative move in the wording, found by our model and explained in one line. It is not a claim that the ad is false.
  • Claims are checked when a reader asks: press "Check this ad's claims" on a card. The check runs once and its result is shown to everyone afterwards. The ten ads with the most money behind them in each race are checked ahead of time.
  • Claim verdicts say what the cited sources say. A verdict that an ad is wrong or misleading is shown only when it cites an established fact-checker or an institutional record — Congress, a federal agency, a court — and its confidence is not low; a weaker one is not shown at all. Each verdict shows what it rests on and how confident it is. If we got one wrong, press Disagree: a verdict that readers dispute and no one defends comes down.
  • Video ads come from the campaigns' own YouTube channels; the transcript is analyzed. Meta ads are analyzed on their text; their video and images are not, yet.
