Nov 6, 2024, 07:37 AM

JD Vance has been elected as the next Vice President of the United States, following Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 presidential election. Vance, a Republican Senator from Ohio and author of the best-selling memoir 'Hillbilly Elegy,' will be sworn in January. This marks a significant milestone for Vance, who has transformed from a former Trump critic to a key figure in the Trump administration. Vance's selection as vice president was widely praised for energizing the Trump campaign. He is noted for his background as a venture capitalist and his compelling personal story, which includes serving in the Marine Corps and graduating from Yale Law School. Vance's election makes him one of the youngest and least experienced individuals to hold the office of vice president. The election night celebration took place in West Palm Beach, Florida, where Trump and Vance addressed their supporters. Vance's wife, Usha, and their family were present at the event. Vance will be a heartbeat away from the presidency, marking the closest Cincinnati has come to producing a president in more than 100 years. Additionally, Vance is noted for being a Catholic.
