Ramaswamy earns key Ohio endorsement from Bernie Moreno

Vivek Ramaswamy, running for Ohio governor, has received a significant endorsement from Senator Bernie Moreno. This follows President Donald Trump's support for Ramaswamy last month. Ramaswamy is a former presidential candidate and has previously worked with Trump. Moreno praised Ramaswamy, calling him an "America-First outsider" and the best choice for Ohio. He made this announcement at a recent event, expressing pride in endorsing a leader he considers bold. Ramaswamy shared Moreno's remarks on social media, emphasizing their shared commitment to U.S. citizens. Ramaswamy launched his campaign for governor on February 24. Trump's early backing is seen as a strong boost for his campaign, especially after the political influence Trump has shown in past Ohio races. Some observers believe Trump’s early endorsement aims to discourage other potential candidates. Ohio's outgoing Lieutenant Governor, John Husted, is also involved in the state's political dynamics. His decision not to run for governor is partly attributed to Trump's support for Ramaswamy. Meanwhile, Governor Mike DeWine has appointed popular former football coach Jim Tressell to replace Husted. Ramaswamy is expected to attract significant support, having secured endorsements from several prominent conservatives. His campaign is gaining momentum in a state that has consistently voted for Trump.
