Brown gains endorsement of former rival for Senate
U.S. Rep. Sherrod Brown will finally win the endorsement today of his former Democratic rival for U.S. Senate, Mr. Brown's campaign said late yesterday.
Mr. Brown, a Democrat from Avon who faces incumbent Republican Mike DeWine this fall, is scheduled to receive the endorsement of primary election opponent Paul Hackett at a "unity rally" in Cincinnati, the Brown campaign said. Mr. Hackett could not be reached for comment.
Mr. Hackett, an Iraq war veteran and former congressional candidate, quit the race in February under intense pressure from Democratic leaders.
He criticized Mr. Brown and those leaders heavily in the days and months that followed.
Mr. DeWine of Cedarville unveiled a new campaign ad on his Web site yesterday, focused on his Senate work to help "first responders" such as firefighters and emergency workers.
