Ohio Governor Mike DeWine to Appoint Jon Husted as U.S. Senator at 1 PM ET Following JD Vance's Resignation
Jan 17, 2025, 03:14 PM
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine is set to appoint Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted as the next U.S. Senator from Ohio, filling the vacancy left by JD Vance, who resigned to become Vice President-elect. The announcement of Husted's appointment is scheduled for 1 PM ET. Husted had been considering a run for governor in 2026, but his appointment to the Senate may alter his political trajectory. DeWine's decision comes after discussions with other potential candidates, including former presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy, who had been rumored to be in the running for the Senate seat.
