COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Republican Bernie Moreno has defeated Democratic U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown in Ohio to help shift control of the Senate to the GOP. The Cleveland businessman will be the state’s first Latino senator. The $500 million contest was the most expensive Senate race this year and one of the most expensive in U.S. history. The win Tuesday marked another win former President Donald Trump, who backed Moreno. Moreno’s campaign had criticized Brown on immigration and transgender rights and tied him to the Biden administration’s border security policies.
