Ohio will hold a Republican primary today for the U.S. Senate. Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown is running for re-election and faces no primary opposition. Two Republicans have emerged as the front-runners in the contest to face Brown: businessman Bernie Moreno, who has the backing of former President Donald Trump, and state Sen. Matt Dolan, who has the backing of Republican Gov. Mike DeWine. Polling has found state Secretary of State Frank LaRose in third place.

The expected vote is the total number of votes that are expected in a given race once all votes are counted. This number is an estimate and is based on several different factors, including information on the number of votes cast early as well as information provided to our vote reporters on Election Day from county election officials. The figure can change as NBC News gathers new information.
