Jon Husted, Ohio’s lieutenant governor, tapped to replace JD Vance in Senate

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine announced Friday that Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted will replace Vice President-elect JD Vance in the U.S. Senate.

Husted, 57, will serve until a special election in November 2026, when a winner will complete the remainder of Vance’s term.

DeWine praised Husted’s knowledge of Ohio and his record on economic development, including Intel’s $20 billion investment in the state.

Husted, accepting the appointment, expressed readiness to work with the incoming administration.

Vance officially resigned on January 10, and the special election will be held in 2026, with the winner serving until 2028, ABC News has reported.
