Ohio Democrats See Opening as Max Miller Abuse Allegations Mount
Democrats say the allegations could weaken Miller in a district he won with just over 51% of the vote, as Republicans monitor the fallout.
- Facing mounting domestic abuse allegations from his ex-wife, Emily Moreno, Representative Max Miller faces escalating pressure that creates a potential political opportunity for Democrats in his northeast Ohio congressional district.
- The legal dispute involves allegations of physical abuse and a broken collarbone on their child; Miller denies all claims and has filed a defamation lawsuit against Moreno to counter the accusations.
- Court filings submitted Thursday allege Miller harassed Moreno's attorney, Andrew Zashin, while the House Democratic Women's Caucus and Rep. Shontel Brown demanded an ethics investigation and his resignation.
- Ohio Governor Mike DeWine called the accusations "very serious" while noting that Miller's political fate should be determined by voters, even as Republican leaders maintain support for the incumbent.
- Democrats sense vulnerability in the district Miller won by 51% two years ago, though consultant Terry Casey suggests opponent Brian Poindexter requires around $2 million to mount a competitive challenge.
