Ohio Sen. Bernie Moreno urges Rep. Max Miller to quit House race
What's next: Republicans face an Aug. 5 deadline to replace Miller on the ballot if pressure to step aside grows.
Sen. Bernie Moreno called on Rep. Max Miller to resign from Congress, escalating a private family dispute into a public fight inside Ohio's Republican Party. Moreno, an Ohio Republican, wrote on X that his former son-in-law showed "erratic and dangerous behavior" and posed a threat to Moreno's daughter and granddaughter. Miller, who was endorsed by President Donald Trump and is running for reelection, denied allegations tied to his divorce and custody battle in a livestream earlier Sunday. Moreno had largely avoided public comment on the dispute before issuing his statement. The clash comes days before Ohio's Aug. 5 deadline to replace a congressional candidate on the ballot.
