Ohio GOP Senate candidates Bernie Moreno and Frank LaRose have endorsed JR Majewski.
The GOP House candidate faces backlash after calling Special Olympics athletes "fucking retarded."
AdvertisementTwo high-profile GOP Senate candidates in Ohio won't say whether they still back House candidate JR Majewski after he made a joke referring to Special Olympics athletes as "fucking retarded."
But State Sen. Matt Dolan, another Senate GOP candidate, told Business Insider in a statement that he agrees with the Lucas County GOP's condemnation of Majewski's "reprehensible remarks."
And he called on his two opponents to rescind their support for the embattled House candidate.
