Embattled GOP Rep. Max Miller is facing growing calls from Senate Republicans to resign or end his reelection bid – but has so far vowed to remain in the race as he denies abuse allegations from his ex-wife.
Sen. Jon Husted, an Ohio Republican, said on Thursday – after sidestepping questions on the matter for days – that Miller should end his campaign and leave Congress.
“I believe Max would be making the right decision to step aside as a candidate and resign from Congress to focus on what is in the best interest of his daughter. Years from now, I believe he will look back and know it was the right choice for her,” Husted posted on X.
Pressed later on why he took so long to call on Miller to resign, Husted said: “That speaks for itself.”
Miller, meanwhile, has denied any wrongdoing and vowed to stay in his reelection race.
