In a once-Democratic state that has become more Republican, the race is more competitive than many political observers initially expected.
Tim Ryan, the representative of Democratic U.S, and Republican JD Vance, who is running for Ohio’s open Senate seat, soon went on the attack against each other in their first debate Monday night, with each blaming the other for job losses and putting party loyalty above the needs of voters.
Vance accused Ryan of supporting policies that led to the rape of a 10-year-old girl in Ohio. Ryan said Vance had started a “fake nonprofit” to help people overcome addiction issues.
Each also said the other was too beholden to his party, with Ryan echoing a comment from former President Donald Trump in calling Vance an “a**-kisser” and Vance saying Ryan’s 100% voting record with President Joe Biden means he’s not the reasonable moderate he says he is.
