Campaign positions

What each campaign says.

Sherrod Brown

No position on voting rules or election administration was found on his campaign's home page, its Our Fight issues page, or its posts on stock trading, data centers and fundraising. On the record, he cosponsored the Freedom to Vote Act, S. 2747, and was an original cosponsor of the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, S. 4, both in the 117th Congress; that is a cosponsorship, not a statement.

    Jon Husted: Matches stated record claim

    His office says the Senate voted on his bill to require voters to show photo ID at the polls, and that it fell short of the 60 votes needed to advance, 52 to 46. He introduced S. 5271 on August 5, 2026, to amend the Help America Vote Act of 2002 to require voters to provide photo identification. In the Senate sitting of August 7, 2026, which ran into August 8, he voted Yea on cloture on the motion to proceed to it; cloture was not invoked, 52 to 46 (Roll Call 231), so the bill was not debated. Limit: The vote the Senate held was on whether to begin debate, and it needed 60 votes. His office describes it that way.
