Axios says Brown is still in big danger. Is he?

Posted on Aug 13, 2024

“Smart Brevity” DC Beltway publication Axios is reporting that Sherrod Brown remains in big danger in his Senate re-election campaign.

Yes, but: There are some Senate Democrats who are keeping Harris at arms length.

  • Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) has endorsed Harris, but the presidential campaign did not make a stop in increasingly-red Ohio. And Brown is in a similar bucket as Tester, faced with having to outperform Harris and Walz to keep his seat.

This seems a little at odds with what Axios is reporting, however:

Is Brown safe so long as Harris stays away from Ohio? Or is something else going on here?
