Episode Details

Congressman Max Miller’s reelection is in freefall as union endorsements and donor support vanish amid explosive abuse allegations from his ex-wife, forcing campaign costs to balloon toward $3 million. Court docs reveal he’s lost $30K in organizational backing, with one major labor group openly supporting his opponent, citing “personal circumstances.” The fallout includes key construction unions switching sides and robocalls airing the allegations — even as Miller denies scalding water attacks and touts Teamsters and Operating Engineers support. His mixed labor record and the Ohio AFL-CIO’s endorsement of Democratic challenger Brian Poindexter, an ironworker himself, deepen the crisis. With labor’s vote a critical bloc in his district — higher than national averages — polls now show Miller trailing, despite winning narrowly last time and holding a Trump-leaning district. He’s even offering to personally fund his own campaign — a sign of desperation in a race slipping away.
