Vivek Ramaswamy Wins Republican Primary for Ohio Governor

Biotech entrepreneur and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has secured victory in the Ohio Republican primary for governor.

Ramaswamy defeated challenger Casey Putsch, a political newcomer best known for his automotive content on YouTube.

In a statement following his win, Ramaswamy said, “I know the American Dream exists because I’ve lived it right here, in the state where I was born and raised,” adding, “We’re going to revive that American Dream in Ohio once again — with lower costs, bigger paychecks, and better schools for all Ohioans. I am grateful to everyone who helped us win today’s election by historic margins, and I look forward to a decisive victory again in November.”

He will face Democratic nominee Amy Acton in the general election.
