We posted this in DU yesterday:

It's about the Governor's race with the two primary candidates being (R) candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and (D) candidate Amy Acton.

Also in the other race, former Senator Sherrod Brown (D) received the nod as the Democratic candidate to run for the US Senate vs. the unopposed R incumbent Sen. Jon Husted.

It's interesting that Husted has never won a senatorial race, he was appointed by Gov. DeWine to fill out JD Vance's term when Vance resigned after the 2024 election to take his place as Vice President. Sherrod Brown has a good chance to flip this seat back to D in November. The Ohio Democratic party must get to work on immediately.
