Fox News personality Geraldo Rivera will not run for Ohio's Senate being vacated by Sen. Rob Portman (R), the broadcaster said Thursday.
In a tweet, Rivera confirmed that he had considered a run for office but ultimately rejected the idea.
"After a 36-hour pondering whirlwind I’ve decided not to seek public office. Erica and I deeply appreciate the good wishes of those cheering the idea," he tweeted.
Rivera's announcement comes as speculation has swirled on both sides of the aisle over who will run to replace Portman, who confirmed earlier this month that he would likely not run for reelection.

We need to find a candidate and support them or risk another RINO or Bush League Republican winning it.
I wonder who Trump will support...
Jim Jordan would be perfect!
Ohio doesn’t need Jerry Rivers . . . the guys a total fool.
Didn’t want to puke this morning, until I read this crap.
Said he isn't interested.
I would like to see Jim Jordan be next Speaker of The House.
If the GOP takes back the House next year it'll be Speaker McCarthy
His only qualifications are that his producers thought he was sexy and so put his ugly face on TV to attract the airheads who like that sort of thing.
Jerry???? He’s a wanker. And not a good one.
Good Freaking grief!! WHOREALDO!
Jordan has already turned it down.
Way to go dawg, you finally got something correct.
Post your bank account numbers and I'll have a Nigerian prince send you $36 million.
I was so glad to read this. Thank God! Can’t stand the man, but I had little doubt that he would be elected.
His exploratory polls told him that his effort would be like a snowball in hell. His ego could not fathom the possibility of a rejection by the populace of an entire state. Intelligent people know that Rivera left his reputation on the floor of the room that housed Al Capone’s alleged safe.

Rivera is too young for the Senate at 77 years old
Jane Timken, who BVannon raved about the other day, and Josh Mandel are the two so far. I am getting fundraising emails from both. Bannon said Timken is MAGA, but not sure. Hopefully we get a good candidate, Portman is a Bush RINO that I will be happy to see go!
If you are the person deciding whether I'm correct or not then I'm right a whole lot more than you realize.
Had no idea jerry rivers was an Ohioan.
Cleveland
Actually, Whore aldo is nothingness, human puffery
