Tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy wins Ohio's Republican gubernatorial primary, setting up a general election against Democrat Amy Acton.
Tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy has won Ohio's Republican gubernatorial primary, defeating Casey Putsch, a car designer and racing team owner. Ramaswamy, who previously ran in the 2024 presidential race, received over 80% of the vote, according to the Associated Press. He will face Democrat Amy Acton, former state health director, in the general election. Acton, known for her role during the COVID-19 pandemic, was unopposed in her party's primary. Ohio has not elected a Democratic governor since 2006, making the upcoming race significant for both parties.
