In a defeat for the party's left-wing, Democratic primary voters in Ohio picked an establishment-backed candidate over an ally of Bernie Sanders to fill a vacant House seat GOP voters picked a little-known candidate backed by Trump, sparing him a setback
to what Biden considers a signature achievement because it did not include more for low-income families and gave too much ground to the GOP. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized a Democrat leading the group that crafted the compromise for “choosing to exclude members of color from negotiations and calling that a ‘bipartisan accomplishment.’”
Trump was stung by the defeat of his endorsed candidate in Texas last week when turnout was abysmally low. That undercut his allies' arguments that the former president's endorsement is a silver bullet and that his involvement in the 2022 midterm election will drive Republican turnout. In a late push, Trump spoke in a telephone rally for Carey on Monday night, and alluded to the high political stakes — for him — in the outcome of this obscure special election: "A lot of people are watching this one. It's a big deal."
Many prominent Democrats — and deep-pocketed political interest groups — from across the country took sides in the costly, increasingly nasty contest. Clyburn campaigned for Brown, and was joined by House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, who took a dig at Turner's confrontational style.
