Trump sends, deletes tweet urging Ohio voters to support candidate not in special election
By John Bowden - 08/02/18 03:35 PM EDT


President Trump sent a tweet on Thursday urging Ohio voters to support Rep. Steve Stivers (R-Ohio) in the state's upcoming special election in which Stivers is not a candidate.

"Congressman Steve Stivers of Ohio has done a fantastic job as chair of the [National Republican Congressional Committee]," Trump wrote in the since-deleted tweet. "Go out and vote for Steve on Aug 7."


The president deleted the tweet and posted a new message minutes later, urging Ohioans instead to vote for Troy Balderson, a GOP state senator who won a 10-way Republican primary to face Democrat Danny O'Connor in Tuesday's special election.
