Ohio Republican Senate nominee J.D. Vance Tuesday called for unity in the Republican Party, praising each of his primary opponents in a speech to supporters.
Vance, who trailed other candidates for much of the campaign, surged late after former President Donald Trump endorsed him. The Associated Press called the race shortly after 9:30 p.m., with Vance maintaining about a 30% share of votes in the seven-way primary. There is no runoff.
The mood at the event was lively, with attendees dancing and chatting while a DJ played primarily 80s hits. When Vance officially won, cheers reverberated through the convention center, well beyond the room Vance's event was staged in. When Vance eventually took the stage, he did so alongside his wife and shot the crowd a big thumbs up.
Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, appears at a rally with union workers on the eve of the state's primary elections on May 2, 2022. Ryan is widely considered the Democratic frontrunner for Senate.
