Trump held a campaign rally in Ohio on October 3, 2026, for Republican Senate and gubernatorial candidates, with early voting opening October 6 and Election Day November 3. A Senate GOP super PAC added $14 million to the Ohio race, bringing its total past $90 million. Trump later rallied in Youngstown, one of six states with Senate races Fox calls too close to call, where he was interrupted twice by protesters and one appeared roughed up before removal. At the Ohio rally he commented on Husted's body, calling his hands claws and praising him as an athlete; he later said he examined Husted's ass, called it a pile of muscle and his shoulder like steel.
