Former President Donald Trump is set to speak at a rally in Dayton on behalf of Senate hopeful Bernie Moreno. Trump will address attendees at the Buckeye Values PAC Rally at Wright Bros. Aero, Inc. on March 16. The event is expected to draw a significant crowd, with doors opening at noon and Trump scheduled to speak around 4 p.m.
Moreno is in the race for the Senate seat against state Sen. Matt Dolan and Secretary of State Frank LaRose in the upcoming Republican primary. The winner will challenge Democratic incumbent Sherrod Brown in the November elections. Ohio Governor Mike DeWine recently endorsed Dolan, citing his ability to succeed in challenging races.
Notably, Trump had announced his support for Moreno much earlier in the race, highlighting him as a successful political outsider crucial for defeating Brown. Brown, who has been a U.S. senator since 2006, faces competition from Moreno and Dolan, among others, in the current political landscape.
The upcoming rally and Trump’s steadfast endorsement underscore the significance of this particular Senate race in Ohio. Stay tuned for more updates as the primary election approaches and the candidates intensify their campaigns.
