Jeff Crossman

The attorney general defends state laws, and oversees 900 law enforcement units in Ohio. The race features Republican incumbent Dave Yost against Democrat State Rep. Jeffrey Crossman.

Jeff Crossman, the Democratic candidate for Ohio Attorney General, is promising, if elected, to drop the state’s court appeal seeking to reinstate Ohio’s abortion ban as early as six weeks into a pregnancy.

Politicians who support abortion rights pointed to the case of a 10-year-old pregnant girl who was raped as an example that abortion bans are too extreme, while Republicans blamed the media and abortion rights advocates for fabricating a story that turned out to be true.

Tim Ryan, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate, touts endorsements from abortion rights groups while Republican U.S. Senate nominee J.D. Vance has the support of anti-abortion organizations.

Rep. Jeffrey Crossman is the only Democrat so far to throw his hat in that ring to challenge Republican incumbent Dave Yost.

Some of the victims whose identities were stolen for fraudulent unemployment claims said they are getting notices to pay back that money from the state agency that handles those payments. Some Democratic lawmakers said they want that agency to focus its energy on figuring out how the fraud happened instead.

A Democratic state lawmaker said he wants more information on the relationship between the former chair of the state’s utility regulating panel and FirstEnergy.
