Sherrod Brown and Ron Kincaid are competing for the Democratic nomination, while Jon Husted runs unopposed in the Republican primary.
On Tuesday, Ohio held primary elections for U.S. Senate and gubernatorial races, with voters selecting candidates who will advance to the November general election.
Appointed by Governor Mike DeWine in January 2025 to succeed Vice President JD Vance, Republican Jon Husted defends his seat while running unopposed in the Republican primary.
Seeking a return to the Senate, Sherrod Brown faces Ron Kincaid for the Democratic nomination after holding the seat for 17 years before losing to Senator Bernie Moreno in 2024.
Gubernatorial hopefuls include Democrats Amy Acton and David Pepper, alongside Republicans Heather Hill, Stuart Moats, Vivek Ramaswamy, Robert A. McColley, Casey Putsch, Kimberly C. Georgeton, Travis Jon Vought, and Christy Jo Orr.
With polls closing at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, officials mandated that all ballots arrive by that time to be counted in the general election.
