Pressure Builds on Ohio GOP Rep. Miller Amid Abuse Allegations
TL;DR
Rep. Max Miller faces an ethics probe and mounting calls to quit after domestic abuse allegations; his ex-father-in-law Bernie Moreno publicly urged resignation, and several GOP senators have signaled support for Moreno’s stance. Trump reportedly told Miller that “things aren’t looking good,” though he avoided taking sides. Miller has denied the charges and asked for an ethics review. Replacement rules hinge on timing: withdrawing before Tuesday’s deadline would trigger a special Republican primary; withdrawing later would still require a replacement by August 10 with two days’ notice.
