Elections in Ohio |

The 2024 United States Senate election in Ohio was held on November 5, 2024, to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the state of Ohio. Incumbent Democratic Senator Sherrod Brown lost re-election to a fourth term, being defeated by Republican nominee Bernie Moreno.[1][2] Primary elections took place on March 19, 2024.[3]
This race was one of two 2024 U.S. Senate races in which Democratic senators sought re-election in states where Republican Donald Trump won in both the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections (the other being Montana). Brown's re-election was considered essential for Democrats' chances to retain the Senate majority in 2024.[4]
Moreno defeated Brown by 3.6 percentage points, which was a slightly larger margin than expected. Moreno's victory was seen as aided by Republican nominee Donald Trump, who defeated Democrat nominee Kamala Harris in the state by approximately 11 percentage points in the concurrent presidential election, and it also secured an outright majority for Senate Republicans for the first time since 2021, with a net gain of 4 seats in the 2024 elections. Although Brown outperformed Kamala Harris in the concurrent presidential election, receiving around 2.6% more of the vote, it was still not enough to win. The victory gave Republicans control of both of Ohio's Senate seats for the first time since 2007. Since the state's other U.S. Senator JD Vance was elected Vice President of the United States, Moreno will ultimately become Ohio's senior Senator.[a]
Background
[edit]Ohio has trended towards Republicans in recent years and is now seen as a moderately red state at the federal level. Republicans hold the other U.S. Senate seat and all statewide executive offices along with majorities in both state legislative chambers and the U.S. representative delegation. However, in the 2022 midterms Democrats managed to net a gain a seat in Ohio's U.S. House delegation.[5][6]
Former President Donald Trump won Ohio in both the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections by slightly over 8 points. Republican JD Vance, now the 2024 Republican vice presidential nominee, defeated Democrat Tim Ryan in the 2022 U.S. Senate election by slightly over 6 points.[7][8]
Brown was first elected in 2006, defeating then-incumbent U.S. Senator Mike DeWine (now governor), and has won reelection in 2012 and 2018.[9][10][11] Despite Ohio becoming a reliably Republican state in recent years, Brown has remained popular among his constituents. Because of this, the race was considered to be a tossup; initially, polls indicated Brown to be the narrow favorite to win, though Moreno later gained an edge.[12]
