Ohio Senate candidate Josh Mandel is confident he will win Tuesday's Republican primary and take Democrat Sen. Tim Ryan’s seat in November despite an uphill battle against Trump-backed opponent J.D. Vance, who is leading the polls.

Mandel said on "America’s Newsroom" Monday that his campaign strategy is something no other Ohio Senate candidate has ever done, and it will take him to victory.

"Rather than running the campaign through traditional Republican Party groups, we’ve actually run our campaign through churches," he told co-hosts Dana Perino and Bill Hemmer.

"We’ve got this army of Christian warriors throughout the state who are going to come out in droves and propel us to victory," he said.

Mandel said Sen. Ted Cruz, who offered his endorsement, and Gen. Michael Flynn accompanied him to campaign events at churches

Did he campaign in churches? Of just has a large following of church people.

“We’ve got this army of Christian warriors throughout the state who are going to come out in droves and propel us to victory,” he said.

He'll come in third, and hopefully, this will be his last run for office.

So what? I think Trump thought he might be able to sway Romney by endorsing him.

Trump's track record is a whole lot better than Cruz's.

I also know Mandel supported a no-fly zone in Ukraine that would have draw us into a hot war with Russia. Vance opposed that.

That is good reason to support Vance, which I will be doing since I live in Ohio.

Mandel has a solid track record. I’m surprised that Trupmp chose to support Vance over Mandel. I think it would have been best for him not to endorse at all in Ohio. Mandel has been hard right for some time & has aligned himself with Trunmp’s policies & conservative & orthodox Jews.

I’m with Mandel. He is solid, he is young & he is from Cleveland. Nothing wrong Vance is fine, however he is a convert to Trumpism. Meanwhile the

“he is purely a panderer.”

Navarro calls him a Huckster. He’s right. And a smarmy slime ball.

“He’s a McConnell plant.”

And if what Matt Gaetz says is true, little Joshie runs to Turtle to tattle about the info he gets. He reminds me of Sid in “Tom Sawyer”... “Aunt Polly! Aunt Polly!”

Saw Vance on Jessie tonight. He said “we Republicans for many years” about free speech or something...he hasn’t been one very long.

Love to hear his view on this leaked SCOTUS draft.
