Former Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown is maintaining his lead over incumbent Sen. Jon Husted (R-OH) as cost of living and inflation take center stage for voters in Ohio, according to a new poll.

Brown has held onto his 8-point advantage over Husted, with a new Fox News poll finding that 53% of voters prefer the Democrat, as the Republican trails at 45%. The numbers have remained the same from a poll conducted in June, which found the same margin.
