Donald Trump & J. D. Vance & Ohio Endorsement Wins

On Tuesday, J. D. Vance won the Ohio GOP Senate primary and is now the favorite to win the November general election against Democrat Tim Ryan.

Vance garnered 32.2 percent of the vote — beating out fellow Republicans Josh Mandel (23.9 percent) and Matt Dolan (23.3 percent) and outperforming the final RealClearPolitics polling average, which pegged the race at Vance 26 percent, Mandel 22.5 percent, and Dolan 21.5 percent. Dolan’s late surge in the polls was real but also too little, too late. The collapse of Jane Timken helped Dolan, but Mike Gibbons’s collapse helped Vance more.
