The Ohio Republican Party on Friday endorsed Vivek Ramaswamy for governor over state Attorney General Dave Yost.
The state party made the announcement after its central committee voted to endorse the former GOP presidential nominee, The Hill news outlet reported.
Donald Trump Jr. on Wednesday encouraged the Ohio Republican State Central Committee to endorse Ramaswamy.
“I’ve gotten to know Vivek well over the past few years,” Trump posted on X. “He’s a fighter, a patriot, and exactly the kind of bold, unapologetic America First conservative we need to lead Ohio back to greatness. He isn’t afraid to take on the radical left, but at the same time he’s one of our very best in being able to talk to the other side and persuade Americans about conservative principles.”
