CANTON, OH – U.S. Senate candidate Jane Timken announced the endorsement today of Kellyanne Conway, Former 2016 Campaign Manager and Senior Counselor to President Trump. Conway will also be joining the Timken campaign as a Senior Strategist.

“Jane Timken is a true MAGA champion who was there for President Trump in 2016 and throughout his presidency when many others, including her opponents, hid or stayed on the sidelines. She continues to be a rock-ribbed supporter of the America First agenda,” said Conway. “In a field of click-bait candidates, celebrities and rich guys trying to buy this election, Jane stands out as the thoughtful leader, mom on a mission, and problem-solver ready to tackle the issues facing Ohio. Jane also has the best chance of beating radical, temperamental Tim Ryan in the general election. I urge all Ohioans who support the America First agenda to rally behind Jane Timken as the conservative Ohio needs in the U.S. Senate.”

“I am honored to have Kellyanne Conway’s support and guidance as we head into the most crucial part of this campaign,” said Timken. “Kellyanne’s strategic insights and leadership helped support President Trump’s incredible successes for this country, and she will be an important team member in the fight to protect that progress and reverse the destruction of the radical Left.” 

Today’s endorsement adds to the growing enthusiasm behind Timken’s America First candidacy. In addition to over 180 endorsements from grassroots conservatives in Ohio, Timken has received endorsements from House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, and conservative women’s groups VIEWPAC, Maggie’s List, and Winning for Women. Learn more about Jane Timken and her campaign for U.S. Senate HERE.

Key Endorsement Adds to Growing Momentum

 CINCINNATI, OH – U.S. Senator Rob Portman announced today that he is endorsing Jane Timken in the U.S. Senate race to fill his seat.     

“I believe Jane Timken is the best candidate to advance conservative Republican policies to help Ohio workers and families.  Jane is smart and hard working, and understands the needs of Ohioans.  I believe Ohioans would be proud to have her representing us in the United States Senate.  She has a record of success, including working tirelessly for years to support Republicans at every level.  She led the effort as Ohio Republican Party chair to elect Republicans to all statewide constitutional offices in 2018, and to win Ohio by 8 points for President Trump in 2020,” said Portman.  “I am confident in her ability to win both the primary and the general elections, ensuring that this Senate seat remains Republican with a 50-50 Senate, and so much at stake.”

“Senator Portman is a thoughtful, conservative leader who has served Ohio with distinction, and I’m honored to have his support,” said Timken. “Rob successfully led the effort to pass President Trump’s tax cuts, is the leader in the U.S. Senate in fighting the opioid epidemic, and has consistently delivered results for Ohio on issue after issue.  He is a champion for the unborn, a protector of our 2nd Amendment rights, and worked with President Trump to advance three conservative justices to the U.S. Supreme Court.”

Portman’s endorsement adds to the growing enthusiasm behind Timken’s candidacy and is a clear shift in this race. Recent polling shows that Timken, a first-time candidate, has surged on the ballot and is within striking distance of the lead.  

Senator Portman is one of the most successful elected officials in Ohio history. He was first elected to the United States Senate in 2010, winning by 18 points. He was reelected in 2016 by an even more impressive 21 points, winning 84 of Ohio’s 88 counties and receiving over 3.1 million votes – the third highest vote total for any elected official in Ohio’s history.

He has built a reputation in the Senate as a respected conservative leader who can bring people together to deliver results.

Portman was instrumental in getting a number of President Trump’s major legislative accomplishments through the Senate.  His leadership was critical to Congress passing the historic tax cuts and tax reform, and his strong and steadfast support publicly and behind the scenes helped send Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court.  

President Trump has praised Portman on numerous occasions, and when President Trump was here in Ohio during the campaign, he said that Rob is “a friend of mine who’s an incredibly respected man in the United States Senate. When he speaks, we all listen, including the president.”

“I am proud to support Jane Timken for the U.S. Senate because she is the pro-family candidate who can defeat the leftist anti-American, anti-parent and anti-teacher corruption and incompetence that has infected our public schools across the country.

Jane Timken has the leadership and competence to get the job done and for that reason, I am happy to endorse her.” – Omar Tarazi – Hilliard City Council

“As a member of Hilliard City Council, I know how important it is to have leaders with character and integrity representing Ohio. Not only is Jane focused on the right issues – solving the education crisis our kids are facing, combating violent crime in our communities, fighting against the rising cost of living – but she is in this race for the right reasons. Jane will be a strong public servant to secure Ohio’s future and fight for Ohio’s interests.” – Les Carrier – Hilliard City Council

“Every week, my grassroots army of supporters continues to grow,” said Timken. “I am proud to have the support of so many elected officials and conservative front line fighters in Ohio who have put their faith in me to protect Ohio values.”

Toledo Blade
By Jane Timken, candidate for U.S. Senate

“Inflation is at a 40-year high. The last time it was 7 percent, Olivia Newton John topped the charts and parachute pants were the latest trend.

It’s only been one year of Joe Biden and Democrats’ one-party “leadership,” yet American families are feeling the squeeze now more than ever. The cost of groceries, the cost to buy goods, and the cost to fill up your gas tank are all higher.

…

Yet incredulously, Democrats want to double down on the very agenda that has caused this inflationary environment with out-of-control spending and programs that increase government dependency. How much higher is inflation going to get before Democrats realize socialism doesn’t work?

I’m running to be Ohio’s next United States Senator to put a stop to this madness and turn our economic crisis around.

First, we must stop the spending. Washington has spent trillions of taxpayer dollars over the past year, artificially pumping more money into the economy that has only put pressure on prices to increase even faster.

…

My mom taught me the importance of valuing my pennies when I was a little girl, and I’m going to Washington to be a real fiscal conservative. I support a Balanced Budget Amendment, have signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge vowing not to increase taxes, and believe we must rein in spending — especially when it comes to the federal bureaucracy. Congress has abdicated its oversight authority, and it’s past time we use the “power of the purse” to cut, slash, and lower spending.

Next, we must get people back to work. Democrats paid people to sit at home, and, by result, they’ve ushered in a culture of dependency and disengagement. 

…

In addition to ridding the country of all unconstitutional mask and vaccine mandates that are suffocating the economy, I have a plan to jumpstart our workforce. I will propose legislation that gives tax credits to businesses that invest in local schools, community colleges, and tech schools by training and hiring those students for the jobs they actually need. Four-year colleges are not for everyone, and we can do more to incentivize workforce training for the jobs of the future.

Finally, we must stop the attacks on our oil and gas industry. President Trump unleashed American energy independence, but in a single year, Joe Biden clawed it back. Gas prices are headed to $4 a gallon, and Americans are paying more to heat their homes.

…

Enough is enough. I’m going to Washington to fight for responsible government. Every American family must live within their means — so why shouldn’t Washington?

Only by changing leadership in Washington will we help to change the bottom line for American families in Ohio and across this country.”

Only Candidate in Field with Statewide Base of Support

 CANTON, OH – After fourth quarter fundraising reports, U.S. Senate candidate Jane Timken continues to dominate her opponents in terms of the support she has from donors in Ohio. She has raised more dollars from more individuals in the state than any other candidate and her support keeps growing each day. In stark contrast to other candidates in the race who are raising a majority of their money from out of state donors or showing no comprehensive statewide donor base, Timken continues to earn the financial support of those that actually can vote in Ohio’s primary election. 

“I am proud to be leading the field when it comes to Ohio’s grassroots support,” said Timken. “I am running a race for Ohio, in Ohio, fueled by hard-working Ohioans, and I’m proud that my coalition of supporters continues to grow.” 

Analysis of the itemized fundraising reports cycle to date prove that Timken is the clear favorite of the Ohio grassroots: 

Jane Timken:

• Jane Timken is the only candidate with broad financial support across the state that continues to grow.
• Cycle to date, Jane has raised over $2.7 million dollars from Ohioans, handily beating out the rest of her opponents.
• Jane has over 3,700 individual donors from Ohio representing all 88 counties, including nearly 700 this quarter alone. 

Josh Mandel:

• Despite multiple previous bids for office in the state of Ohio, Ohio donors are choosing not to support Mandel’s candidacy and based on his itemized reports, nearly two-thirds of his financial support comes from out of state. 

Bernie Moreno:

• Bernie Moreno’s fundraising has stalled and the number of individuals willing to make an investment in his campaign has dwindled.  
• He raised only $300,000 this past quarter – less than half of what he raised in the 3rd quarter.
• Only 141 donors supported him last quarter – with just 84 from Ohio.  

JD Vance:

• Cycle to date, 70% of the money JD Vance has raised has come from outside Ohio.  
• In Q4 alone, less than 200 Ohio donors made a contribution to his campaign. 

Mike Gibbons:

• Despite spending nearly $10 million on TV advertising, just 50 people in the state of Ohio chose to support his campaign in Q4 and 175 overall. 

Matt Dolan: 

• Despite entering the race to fill an Ohio void he claimed existed, Dolan’s Q4 itemized report shows no evidence of this. Only 25 individuals outside the greater Cleveland area even made a contribution to his campaign. 
• Even though Q4 was Dolan’s first fundraising quarter, traditionally the strongest for candidates, the support he showed on his report was lackluster.  

Timken’s Ohio support boosts an unmatched ground game with Timken County Chairs in all 88 counties and over 175 endorsements from Ohio elected officials and activists. She is also the only candidate doing significant direct voter contact and has already surpassed one million voter contacts in the campaign.

This brings Timken’s total endorsement count to over 175 conservative elected officials in Ohio, a strong testament to her leadership and record. 

“I’m proud to endorse Jane Timken to be Ohio’s next United States Senator. As Jane’s friend and a farmer, I am confident she will be a champion for Ohio Agriculture. Jane is committed to ensuring government regulations and taxes, especially estate taxes, never hinder opportunities for Agriculture to grow. Jane is a leader with integrity and strength. Her moral character and work ethic will make us proud.” – State Senator Bob Peterson

“During my seven-years in the Ohio House, I have fought corruption, advanced gun rights, cut taxes, and stood for family values. I’m endorsing Jane Timken for U.S. Senate because Jane is the candidate who will take this fight to Washington on behalf of Conservative Ohioans. Ohio will be represented proudly by Senator Jane Timken.” – State Representative Kyle Koehler 

“Jane Timken is the strongest choice for Ohio’s next Senator because she’s in this race for the right reasons – to be an advocate for Ohio’s workforce, Ohio’s small businesses, and Ohio’s families. Ohio voters can trust that Jane will be the fighter they rely on to stand up for their interests in Washington and never back down.” – State Representative Adam Holmes

“I am proud to earn the endorsement of these conservative leaders who have been on the front lines of the fight for family values, individual liberties, limited government, and a stronger Ohio,” said Timken.

The growing slate of over 175 grassroots endorsements from Ohio conservatives adds to additional endorsements from House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, Maggie’s List, and VIEWPAC.

These boost an unmatched statewide field program with over one million voter contacts made and individual donor support in all 88 counties, highlighting Timken’s appeal as the clear grassroots, consensus candidate. Learn more about Jane Timken and her campaign for U.S. Senate HERE.

Three Recent Polls Have Confirmed Jane Timken’s Momentum

 CANTON, OH – A new survey released today from the Bernie Moreno Campaign shows that Jane Timken is tied for the lead against career politician Josh Mandel. This validates recent internal polling showing the same result, as well as new polling from the Mandel aligned Club For Growth showing that Timken has gutted Mandel’s lead. 

Timken’s continued growth comes even after she is being attacked by Mandel’s D.C. special interest group, and Moreno’s “jump” comes even after he is outspending Timken by a 3-1 margin. 

“We thank these outside polls for confirming what we already know – Ohio voters are clearly responding to Jane Timken’s strong record of leadership and authentic America First record,” said Timken Communications Director Mandi Merritt.

CANTON, OH – U.S. Senate candidate Jane Timken held the kickoff event tonight for “Parents for Jane” in Central Ohio with a group of over 150 parents, students, and families across the state. The “Parents for Jane” grassroots coalition is an extension of Jane’s “Parents First” statewide tour and highlights her continued focus on education and the issues concerning families across the state.

“Democrats have waged a war on parents by fighting to keep schools closed, pushing radical ideologies on children at the expense of a good education, and colluding with the National School Boards Association to label parents ‘domestic terrorists,'” said Timken. “As a mom and Ohio’s next Senator, I will always stand on the side of parents to decide what is best for their child’s health, education and well-being, not politicians, special interests or teachers unions. I firmly believe that taking back our country starts with taking back our classrooms.” 

Jane was joined today by “Parents for Jane” Chair State Representative Marilyn John, sponsor of Ohio’s Backpack Bill, and Co-Chair Cathy Pultz, a mom, activist, and former teacher.

“Parents for Jane” members will act as grassroots leaders for the campaign in all 88 Ohio counties, organizing events and utilizing traditional in-person campaigning as well as digital mediums to share Jane’s message on putting parents back at the center of their children’s health, education, and well-being. 

This coalition launch, the second of the cycle behind “Women for Jane,” comes on the heels of Jane’s release of her “Parents First” curriculum and her “Parents First” listening tour. The campaign has already held dozens of “Women for Jane” and “Parents First” events as Jane continues to grow her support as the grassroots, consensus candidate that can unify the Party and win. 

Today, Jane became the first Senate candidate to officially file for the ballot and recentpolling confirms Timken, as a first-time candidate, continues to climb on the ballot and is in second place, closing in on first.
