Fox News Poll: Democratic unity, Republican crossovers shape Ohio Senate race
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
President Donald Trump carried Ohio by more than 11 percentage points in 2024, but a new Fox News survey finds his standing in the Buckeye State has deteriorated — a development that is benefitting Democrat Sherrod Brown in the Senate race.
By a 15-point margin, Ohioans view Trump negatively: 42% hold a favorable opinion and 57% an unfavorable one. That’s more than a 20-point swing compared to his +6 net positive rating (52-46%) in the November 2024 Ohio Fox News Voter Analysis election survey.
The poll of Ohio voters, released Wednesday, finds Trump’s ratings are about on par with views of Republican incumbent Senator Jon Husted (41% favorable, 50% unfavorable), while challenger and former Ohio Senator Brown is viewed significantly more positively (53% vs. 44%).
That helps Brown outperform Husted by a 53% to 45% margin in the race to fill the state’s Senate seat. His 8-point lead is outside the poll’s margin of sampling error.

Brown garners fully 98% support among Democrats compared to Husted’s 86% among Republicans. Brown also receives backing from outside the democratic base: 31% of non-MAGA Republicans and 13% of all Republicans. Only 2% of Democrats pick Husted.
Husted is favored by White evangelical Christians (+32 points), rural voters (+11), and White men without a college degree (+7). Brown is preferred by voters under age 35 (+33), independents (+18), and women (+14).
Non-white voters favor Brown by 58 points, while the race is a dead heat among White voters (49% each). And the candidates are nearly tied among voters ages 45 and over (49-48%), while Brown leads by 23 points among those under age 45.
The candidates are competing for the Senate seat Husted currently holds after being appointed to replace JD Vance when Vance became vice president. Brown is hoping to return to the U.S. Senate after he narrowly lost his seat to Bernie Moreno in 2024.
About 7 in 10 of both Brown’s (73%) and Husted’s supporters (69%) are certain of their choice. Overall, about one in four say they may change their mind before voting.
FOX NEWS POLL: ‘RESILIENT DISCONTENT’ DEFINES THE US MOOD AT 250TH ANNIVERSARY
By a 6-point margin, more Democrats (82%) than Republicans (76%) say they are extremely or very motivated to vote this November.
Most Brown supporters, 68%, describe their vote as mainly for him rather than against Husted (30%). Those who are backing Husted are less enthusiastic about their candidate, with 58% saying their support is mainly for him rather than against Brown (39%).
In a state Trump carried with 55% of the vote, the survey finds being too close to him is now more of a liability than being too liberal. Some 39% of Ohioans are concerned Brown is «too liberal,» including 13% of his supporters. For Husted, 46% overall are worried he is «too close» to Trump, including 10% of his backers.
Inflation dominates, with 43% saying it is the most important issue in their Senate vote. All others trail far behind, including healthcare (12%), immigration and border security (11%,) political divisions (9%), jobs (8%), Iran (7%), abortion and crime (4% each). Notably, inflation is the top issue among independents (50%), Democrats (44%), Republicans (40%), MAGA (34%), and 2024 Trump voters (39%).
Voters focused on inflation favor Brown by 14 points, as do healthcare voters by 44 points, while those prioritizing immigration and border security go for Husted by 76.
On their family’s financial situation, 39% of Ohio voters say they are falling behind, up from 32% who said the same in the 2024 FNVA survey. The largest number, 49%, say their family is holding steady, down 9 points.
«There’s good reason for the Democrats to be bullish on Ohio,» says Republican pollster Daron Shaw, who conducts Fox News polls with Democrat Chris Anderson. «The state remains solidly Republican, but Democrats are united against Trump allies and independents prefer Brown.»
In the race for governor, Ohio voters are divided: half back Democrat Amy Acton (50%) and nearly half favor Republican Vivek Ramaswamy (49%). Fourteen percent who prefer Brown in the Senate race cross-party lines to support Ramaswamy.
Most Democrats (93%) go for Acton, while most Republicans favor Ramaswamy (89%). Independents back Acton by 8 points (51-43%).
Nearly twice as many Acton supporters (38%) as Ramaswamy backers (21%) say their vote is mainly «against» the other candidate.
Seven in 10 of each candidate’s supporters are certain of their choice.
Although views of Acton are positive by 9 points (46% favorable vs. 37% unfavorable), 16% are unable to rate her. Ramaswamy’s ratings are positive by 1 point (45-44%), while Vance’s are underwater by 7 (45-52%), and opinion splits on sitting GOP Gov. Mike DeWine (48-48%).

By more than 2-to-1, Buckeye voters oppose having an AI data center built in their area (32% favor, 65% oppose). That opposition is across the political spectrum, as majorities of Democrats (72%), independents (64%), and Republicans (59%) are against building data centers.
Conducted May 28-June 1, 2026 under the joint direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R), this Fox News Poll includes interviews with a sample of 1,015 Ohio registered voters randomly selected from a statewide voter file. Respondents spoke with live interviewers on landlines (109) and cellphones (653) or completed the survey online after receiving a text message (253). Results based on the full sample have a margin of sampling error of ± 3 percentage points. Sampling error for results among subgroups is higher. In addition to sampling error, question wording and order can influence results. Sources for developing weight targets include the most recent American Community Survey, Fox News Voter Analysis, and voter file data. Weights are generally applied to age, race, education, and area variables to ensure the demographics of respondents are representative of the registered voter population. Results among subgroups are only shown when the sample size is at least N=100.

Hillary Clinton still fuming over Electoral College, calls it an ‘abomination’ in new Netflix series
Hillary Clinton slams Biden’s 2024 re-election bid as ‘terrible mistake’
Hillary Clinton labels former President Joe Biden’s 2024 re-election bid a ‘terrible mistake’ in a recent interview, stating he should have passed the torch. ‘Fox & Friends’ hosts discuss the irony and timing of her criticism, contrasting it with her earlier endorsement. They also critique the Democratic Party’s internal alignment and lack of diverse perspectives on this significant political decision, highlighting perceived flaws in party strategy.

Failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is still railing against the Electoral College, which cost her the presidency in 2016, calling it an «abomination» in a trailer for the new Netflix docuseries titled «The American Experiment.»
In a trailer for the upcoming series, which is executive-produced by Tom Hanks, Clinton remarks, «Well, I personally think the Electoral College is an abomination. For obvious reasons.»
Set to drop today, the new five-part docuseries marks 250 years of U.S. independence by examining «how American democracy has been built, challenged, and reimagined» over the course of its centuries-long history, according to Netflix’s Tudum. In addition to Clinton, the series will feature interviews with dozens of politicians and historians, including former Vice Presidents Kamala Harris, Mike Pence and Al Gore, as well as Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.
The push for abolishing the Electoral College, which was instituted in 1787, has gained increased support in some corners of the left, especially after Clinton’s 2016 loss to President Donald Trump. Though Clinton won the national popular vote, Trump secured several key swing states that gave him the Electoral College edge, sending him to the White House.
WHAT IS THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE? HOW DOES IT WORK?

After her loss, Clinton lambasted the system, calling it «the god-forsaken Electoral College» in her 2017 memoir «What Happened.» In an interview with CNN host Anderson Cooper, Clinton reaffirmed her call to abolish the Electoral College, referring to it as «an anachronism that was designed for another time» that «no longer works.»
«We’ve moved toward one person, one vote, that’s how we select winners,» she continued, adding, «I think it needs to be eliminated, I’d like to see us move beyond it.»
Months before Trump’s 2024 victory over Harris, Clinton again raised concerns about the Electoral College, saying in an interview with The 19th, «We are the underdog, that just kind of goes with the territory when we have the Electoral College staring at you.»
Trump defeated Harris both in the Electoral College and in the popular vote.
Fox News Digital reached out to Clinton for additional comment.

In the trailer for the new docuseries, Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., states that «the founders themselves were not in love with the Electoral College» and «it was defective from the beginning.»
«We have a problem that a minority of the population, because of the structure of the Electoral College — in some cases, over the objections of the majority — is ruling the majority,» added Lofgren.
Discussing Clinton’s interview, director Brian Knappenberger told Variety, «I knew I would be asking former Secretary of State and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton about one of the most painful moments of her life.»

«She has rarely spoken candidly about that election night and we’re really happy she talked about it for the series,» said Knappenberger, adding, «She has a unique perspective as one of only five people in American history to lose the presidency after winning the popular vote. The 2016 election also stands out because Hillary Clinton defeated Donald Trump in the popular vote by such a significant margin.»

John Lennon, músico inglés: “Si todo el mundo exigiera la paz en lugar de otro televisor, entonces habría paz”
En la primavera de 1969, el mundo ardía. La Guerra de Vietnam se devoraba las vidas de miles de jóvenes en el sudeste asiático, las calles de Europa aún crujían por las réplicas del Mayo Francés y la Guerra Fría dictaba un guion de paranoia global. En ese ecosistema de tensión absoluta, el hombre más famoso del planeta decidió atrincherarse en la cama de un hotel. Estamos hablando de John Lennon, quien supo ser el líder de The Beatles. No lo hizo para esconderse, sino para encender un megáfono incómodo.
Instalados en la suite 1742 del Hotel Queen Elizabeth en Montreal, John Lennon y Yoko Ono convirtieron su luna de miel en una acción artística, política y mediática sin precedentes: el Bed-In for Peace (Encamada por la paz). Entre sábanas blancas, rodeados de flores y carteles que rezaban “Hair Peace” y “Bed Peace”, la pareja recibió durante siete días a periodistas, filósofos y activistas. Fue el 1 de junio de ese año que dijo: “Si todo el mundo exigiera la paz en lugar de otro televisor, entonces habría paz”.
Cronistas escépticos le exigían soluciones pragmáticas a un músico de rock. Entonces disparó esta sentencia que hoy opera como una profecía de nuestra era hiperconectada. Pero para desarmar la potencia de esa frase es imperativo analizar su contexto histórico y simbólico. A finales de la década del 60, el televisor no era un electrodoméstico común; era el nuevo tótem del capitalismo tardío, el centro de gravedad de la sala de estar de la clase media global y la gran promesa de confort de posguerra.
Lennon, un agudo observador de la conducta de masas, identificó allí una trampa. El sistema ofrecía bienestar material a cambio de apatía política. La comodidad de consumir imágenes —incluso las de la propia guerra transmitida a la hora de la cena— funcionaba como un anestésico para la acción civil. La frase encierra una ecuación filosófica de responsabilidad individual: la paz no es un accidente geográfico ni un decreto de las cúpulas de poder; es una demanda colectiva que se asume o se delega.
Si el ciudadano medio invierte su energía, su tiempo y su salario en acumular bienes de consumo en lugar de presionar a sus gobernantes, se vuelve cómplice por omisión. Reemplácese hoy la palabra “televisor” por el último modelo de smartphone, la suscripción a una plataforma de streaming o el algoritmo de turno, y la interpelación de Lennon mantiene su vigencia intacta, desnudando cómo el entretenimiento y el mercado fagocitan las urgencias humanitarias. Para que haya paz, primero hay que exigirla.
Aunque la frase nació como una declaración oral al calor del debate periodístico, su supervivencia histórica y su estatus de manifiesto político se consolidaron gracias a su registro impreso. La cita aparece en John Lennon en sus propias palabras, publicado originalmente en 1980 por los editores Miles y Pearce Marchbank. A diferencia de las biografías tradicionales, este libro se estructuró como una curaduría minuciosa de declaraciones textuales, cartas, manifiestos y fragmentos de entrevistas.
Esa frase en Montreal no fue un exabrupto ni un eslogan publicitario; es, posiblemente, la síntesis perfecta del viaje intelectual de su autor. Representa la transición definitiva del John Lennon ídolo de masas —el joven de Liverpool atrapado en la histeria de la Beatlemanía de álbumes como A Hard Day’s Night— al John Lennon activista radical y artista conceptual influenciado por el situacionismo de Yoko Ono. Toda la obra posterior de Lennon está contenida conceptualmente en esa crítica al televisor.
Es el mismo nervio ideológico que meses después pariría la campaña global de afiches callejeros War Is Over! (If You Want It) (¡La guerra ha terminado! [Si tú quieres]) y que, en 1971, encontraría su forma artística en el himno Imagine. Cuando el músico cantaba sobre imaginar a la humanidad despojada de posesiones, fronteras y religiones, no lo hacía desde una utopía ingenua o de fantasía infantil, sino desde la convicción de que la sociedad civil estaba atrapada en un diseño cultural destinado a distraerla.
John Winston Lennon nació el 9 de octubre de 1940 en Liverpool, Inglaterra, en medio de los bombardeos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, y creció marcado por el abandono de sus padres y la crianza de su estricta tía Mimi. Su espíritu rebelde encontró refugio en el naciente rock and roll, lo que lo llevó a fundar The Quarrymen, germen de lo que pronto se convertiría en The Beatles. Junto a Paul McCartney, George Harrison y Ringo Starr, Lennon protagonizó el fenómeno cultural más masivo de la historia de la música.
Entre sus grandes álbumes están Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band y Abbey Road. Tras la disolución de la banda en 1970, el músico canalizó su genio en una carrera solista profundamente introspectiva y vanguardista de la mano de su esposa, la artista Yoko Ono, legando al mundo obras maestras como los discos John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band e Imagine. Su vida pública estuvo signada tanto por su genialidad artística como por su férreo activismo político contra la Guerra de Vietnam.-
Tras un retiro de cinco años para dedicarse a la crianza de su segundo hijo, Sean Lennon (ya había tenido a Julian Lennon con su primera esposa, Cynthia Powell), el compositor regresó a la escena musical en 1980 con el aclamado álbum Double Fantasy. Sin embargo, el renacimiento creativo fue trágicamente interrumpido el 8 de diciembre de ese mismo año: al regresar a su residencia en el Edificio Dakota de Nueva York, Mark David Chapman, un fanático perturbado, lo asesinó a balazos. Tenía apenas 40 años.
