A secret meeting of potential GOP Senate candidates in Arizona was missing a key player, underscoring the difficulty in shaping intraparty races.
“All the usual levers with him don’t operate because he lives in a world of his own,” said Christopher Nicholas, a longtime GOP strategist in the state. “I think some people, myself included, are kind of resigned to the fact that we have to go through this primary and vanquish Mastriano once and for all and get on with beating Casey.”
And in Ohio, wealthy auto dealer Bernie Moreno jumped into the race alongside state Sen. Matt Dolan, whose family owns the Cleveland Guardians. Trump praised Moreno on Truth Social, saying he would not be easy to beat — suggesting the former president may be poised to again play a large role in shaping that state’s Republican primary. Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown has said he is running for reelection.
“Unlike the last election cycle, Democrats are playing much more defense in 2024,” Torunn Sinclair, the spokeswoman for the McConnell-aligned Senate Leadership Fund PAC, said in a statement. “There’s a long way to go until Election Day, and Republicans are focused on recruiting top-quality candidates who will win both a primary and general election.
