Vivek Ramaswamy Files To Run For Ohio Governor

The Hill reports:

Former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is set to launch his expected 2026 run for Ohio governor next Monday, The Hill has learned. After weeks of hints at the move, Ramaswamy is on track to kick off his campaign in Cincinnati on Feb. 24, a spokesperson told The Hill. He filed campaign paperwork over the weekend.

The biotech entrepreneur would join Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost (R) in the GOP primary race to succeed term-limited Gov. Mike DeWine (R) in the Buckeye State. Ohio Treasurer Robert Sprague was expected to run, but he changed course and endorsed Ramaswamy earlier this month.

With some notable prelaunch support, Ramaswamy appears positioned to become a favorite for the seat.
