Trump Urges Vivek Ramaswamy to Fill Ohio Senate Seat Vacated by Vice President-elect JD Vance
Jan 15, 2025, 06:32 PM
President-elect Donald Trump is encouraging entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy to fill the Ohio Senate seat vacated by JD Vance, who resigned after being elected vice president, according to reports from The Washington Post. Ohio Governor Mike DeWine is tasked with appointing a replacement for the seat until 2026. Ramaswamy, who previously removed himself from consideration two months ago, met with Governor DeWine over the weekend at the governor's mansion to discuss the potential appointment. Betting markets have reacted to the news, with Ramaswamy's odds of taking the seat increasing significantly. It remains unclear how Ramaswamy's possible move to the Senate would affect his current role leading DOGE, a government initiative he has co-chaired with Elon Musk since November. Trump's support signals a strong endorsement for Ramaswamy, who previously ran for the Republican presidential nomination.
