DOGE co-leader Ramaswamy planning 2026 run for governor in Ohio: sources
Sources tell Fox News Vivek Ramaswamy to 'shortly' announce 2026 governor bid in race to succeed Republican Mike DeWine
 By Paul Steinhauser , Brooke Singman Fox News
Published January 17, 2025 2:01pm EST

Vivek Ramaswamy, the multi-millionaire biotech entrepreneur and former Republican presidential candidate, plans to launch a bid for Ohio governor, multiple sources confirm to Fox News Digital.

The sources add that Ramaswamy, who along with Elon Musk is co-leader of President-elect Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) initiative, is expected to make an announcement on a gubernatorial run "shortly."

"Vivek’s base plan remains [the] same: to get accomplishments at DOGE and then announce a run for governor shortly," said an Ohio operative familiar with Ramaswamy’s thinking who asked to remain anonymous to speak more freely, told Fox News on Friday.

Current Ohio Republican Gov. Mike DeWine is term-limited and cannot seek re-election in 2026.

DeWine on Friday announced that Lt. Gov. Jon Husted would fill the U.S. Senate seat held by former Sen. JD Vance until earlier this month, when the vice president-elect stepped down ahead of Monday's inauguration.

Well, I'd say in the long term, he still has his eyes on the presidency.

I think it would be great experience for him or anyone looking to end up at Pennsylvania Ave.

Quite possibly. Being governor would be a good education, though.

Yes it would.  Though, I still can't get past my reservations about him.  Time will tell.

Agreed. I'm not yet all-in on Vivek.

I think Vivek is a worm in search of an apple.
