Summary

Thanks to a favorable map and several Democrats being forced to run for reelection in Red states, Republicans are optimistic about winning back the Senate this November. However, one key to achieving that goal is to flip Democrat Sherrod Brown’s seat in Ohio. Bernie Moreno, the Republican challenging Senator Brown, recently joined FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony to discuss the race and the Republicans' hopes of gaining a majority in the Senate. Moreno discussed his poll numbers, the issues he thinks voters care about, and whether he thinks Vice President Kamala Harris's replacing President Joe Biden at the top of the ticket will impact down-ballot races. The Colombian-American businessman also explained why he got into politics and how former President Trump has inspired him. The conversation was long, and we could not include all of it in our original FOX News Rundown segment. On the FOX News Rundown Extra, we bring you our entire conversation with Ohio Senate Republican nominee Bernie Moreno, and you can hear more about this high-stakes race in the Buckeye State.
