Republican Senate candidate in the race to represent Ohio in the forthcoming US elections of 2024, Bernardino aka Bernie Moreno, is currently receiving harsh criticism over his opinion on access to abortions which he shared at a Town Hall meeting held on Friday 20th September, 2024. Moreno has received criticism for stating that it's "a little crazy" that some women voters in the state cite abortion as their top issue in the 2024 election. Moreno further specified that women over the age of 50 shouldn't be especially concerned about abortions as he didn't think it was an "issue for them". The now viral video of Moreno's opinions on abortion has generated widespread backlash against the Senatorial nominee.
On April 10, 2023, 57 Moreno filed paperwork to run for Ohio's Class I seat in the U.S. Senate up for election in 2024. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump endorsed Moreno in December 2023 and Moreno won the Republican primary on March 19, 2024, defeating Matt Dolan and Frank LaRose. In the run-up to the Republican primary in March 2024, an Associated Press report found that an account on adult website Adult FriendFinder had been created by someone with access to Moreno's email, soliciting "men for 1-on-1 sex". In a statement provided the Associated Press by Moreno's lawyer, a former intern said he wrote the post and described it as an "aborted prank".
