CINCINNATI — Republican nominee for president Donald Trump has selected Ohio Sen. and Greater Cincinnati native J.D. Vance as his vice presidential running mate.
Trump announced the decision on his Truth Social account Monday afternoon.
A Middletown native, Vance recently entered the political scene, beating out former U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan for Ohio's U.S. Senate seat in 2022.
During his time in office, Vance gained attention for his response and work with residents and local government in East Palestine following the toxic train derailment last February.
Over the past two years, Vance has been an active supporter for Trump on the campaign trail and an ally on Capitol Hill.
Trump's announcement of Vance as his running mate came just days after an attempted assassination on him during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania Saturday night.
On Monday, several Ohio politicians, including Gov. Mike DeWine, former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and businessman Bernie Moreno, reacted to Trump's announcement.
"President Trump has made a great choice and Senator Vance will be a great partner as they campaign together this fall," DeWine said.
