Centrist Democrats rush to blunt Nina Turner’s momentum in Ohio
| Old tensions within the Democratic Party are flaring anew as centrist lawmakers scramble to head off a formidable progressive challenge from Nina Turner in Ohio’s 11th District.
Moderate Democrats along with a senior leadership lawmaker, House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.), have quickly coalesced around Shontel Brown to blunt Turner’s traction, drawing more eyeballs and scrutiny to the special House election to replace former Rep. Marcia Fudge (D-Ohio), the Biden administration’s Housing and Urban Development secretary. |
