Ohio Senator JD Vance has been elected as Vice President of the United States alongside President-elect Donald Trump, marking the first vice president from Ohio since Charles Dawes. Governor Mike DeWine of Ohio is tasked with appointing a Republican replacement for Vance's Senate seat, with potential candidates including Vivek Ramaswamy and State Sen. Matt Dolan. Vance expressed gratitude to his wife Usha and Trump for the opportunity to serve, despite having previously criticized Trump. This election is noted for Trump's historic political comeback, as he becomes the second president to serve non-consecutive terms. Vance, a venture capitalist and the author of 'Hillbilly Elegy', is one of the youngest vice presidents in modern history. The transition of power includes expectations of economic and political renewal under Trump's second presidency.
