Republicans Scramble Trump To Ohio To Avert Special Election Loss
The last special congressional election before Election Day is turning into a nail-biter for Republicans.
President Trump will make a campaign stop on Saturday for Troy Balderson, a Republican state senator running to represent Ohio's 12th congressional district that includes affluent suburbs of Columbus as well as rural parts of central Ohio.
The Aug. 7 election takes place in a district that voted 53-42 for President Trump in 2016 while returning Rep. Pat Tiberi, a Republican, to Congress by a large margin. But halfway through his term, Tiberi resigned out of frustration with the political climate and took a job leading an Ohio business group, putting a historically Republican seat into play.
