Rep. Jim Renacci announces fundraising haul for Ohio U.S. Senate race
Cleveland.com ^ | July 9, 2018

Rep. Jim Renacci and an affiliated group raised more than $2 million during the most recent fundraising quarter in his bid for the U.S. Senate, Renacci's campaign announced Monday.

Renacci's campaign did not immediately offer a breakdown of how much of the $2 million was raised by his campaign committee, versus how much was raised by the affiliate, which faces greater restrictions on how the money can be spent. It also did not share how much money Renacci has on hand, a key political fundraising metric. However, the campaign did specify that the $2 million haul did not include any contributions from Renacci himself. For the last fundraising period, Renacci, who became wealthy in business before entering politics, contributed $4 million of the $4.5 million he reported raising.

“Renacci so far has yet to receive significant support from outside political groups, which generally play a major role in Ohio Senate races. The Republican Leadership Fund, a Super PAC affiliated with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, has announced reserving $40 million in TV ads for Senate races in six states — Indiana, Missouri, Nevada, North Dakota, Tennessee and West Virginia — but none in Ohio.”

Hoping for the best although he is only a so so candidate. I despise Sherrod Brown.

Anytime the nominee is not a Cheap Labor Express stooge, the Bush League Republicans will do whatever it takes to help the Democrat win.
They have done so repeatedly.
It’s all about not allowing US to reverse their 30 year bipartisan policy of non-enforcement of law and borders.
They do not want US to elect anyone else to help US keep our country.
They have been successfully preventing US from stopping the illegal alien inundation.
They do not want US to send home the 30 million people they invited here against the will of the citizens.

Have already seen attack ads by Brown against Renacci. He is going to need every cent he can get to counter these ads.

Maybe, the Red Wave will carry him to shore! A few surprise upsets would make the election amazing.

Oh, I see Minnesota has slipped from their list. We were on it for a while because of the Dem who was appointed to fill Al Franken’s seat until a special election this fall.

It is sad and treasonous. They are all as bad for our nation as any of our foreign enemies.

The GOP is dead in America. They are doing nothing to sell the brand and basically hate the President.

I would think we would have a better chance at the Ohio Seat than say, Nevada (Heller) that Mitch etal will fund?

Unfortunately Renacci is not Mr. Dynamite when it comes to campaigning. He is dull as dust. Jon Husted would have been a much better candidate against Brown. But Husted was talked into running for Lt. Governor. This is Sherrod Brown’s race to lose.

Gee, Cleveland.com waited until the FOURTH paragraph to tell is Renacci is a Republican.

Why couldn't the headline have been:

Damn LSM.
