Ohio Democrat Senator Sherrod Brown urges Biden to end campaign

Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, joined Democrats on Friday evening in calling on President Biden to drop out of the 2024 race.

“At this critical time, our full attention must be returned to these important issues. I believe the president should end his campaign,” he said in a statement on Christmas.

According to Brown, “Over the past few weeks, I’ve spoken to Ohioans about important issues like how to continue job growth in our state, give law enforcement the resources to crack down on fentanyl, protect Social Security and Medicare from cuts, and stop the ongoing effort to impose a national abortion ban.”

“I agree with the many Ohioans who have contacted me,” he said.

Brown is the fourth Democratic senator to pressure Biden to step down and the 34th congressional Democrat to do so.

The Ohio Democrat is in a particularly competitive race in November, where he will face Republican Senate candidate Bernie Moreno, who has the backing of former President Trump.

Nonpartisan political handicapper the Cook Political Report rated the Ohio Senate race a “toss up,” ranking it alongside races in Montana, Nevada and Michigan.
