- Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, a Republican, oversaw his state's elections in 2020.
- At the time, he defended the integrity of the vote and called baseless stolen claims "irresponsible."
- But now he's running for Senate, and in a possible bid for Trump's support, he's endorsing his 2024 bid.
In the days after the 2020 election, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose suggested that former President Donald Trump's claims of widespread voter fraud were irresponsible.
But that was when LaRose was tasked with overseeing the state's election. Now, as LaRose is seeking his next job as US Senator from Ohio, he's backing Trump's 2024 comeback bid just days after launching his Senate campaign.
