At 02:59 CET, Sherrod Brown led Jon Husted in the Ohio Senate race, 52.9 to 43.1 percent with 44 percent counted, according to NBC News, based on AP data. No winner has been called, and the Election Day vote still has to come in. No race of 2026 has cost the crypto industry more. Fairshake's affiliate Defend American Jobs had reported $46.6 million against Brown by 15 October, and Semafor later put the figure at $55 million. Two years ago the same network spent about $40 million and won. This time the result tests how far crypto money can really carry an election, and it comes after the CLARITY Act failed in the Senate.
