Ramaswamy released the following statement:
“I know the American Dream exists because I’ve lived it right here, in the state where I was born and raised. We’re going to revive that American Dream in Ohio once again - with lower costs, bigger paychecks, and better schools for all Ohioans. I am grateful to everyone who helped us win today’s election by historic margins, and I look forward to a decisive victory again in November.”
He will face former Ohio Department of Health director Dr. Amy Acton, who has no Democratic primary opponent, and Libertarian Donald Kissick in November.
