CLEVELAND — With US Senator for Ohio JD Vance officially nominated at the Republican National Convention, we share what to know about Donald Trump's GOP Vice Presidential candidate pick on the July 17, 2024 edition of Ohio Has Issues with Stephanie Haney and Mike Polk Jr.
Vance, who previously referred to himself as a "Never Trumper," has now significantly changed his political outlook to closely align with former President Trump, which has resulted in his being tapped as Trump's running mate.
We hear from friends of the show NBC senior national political reporter Henry Gomez (who is at the RNC in Milwaukee) and Case Western Reserve University political science professor Justin Buchler about what the Vance pick means for Ohio politics, while we look ahead to the November election.
We also hear from US Sen. Sherrod Brown and his competitor, Republican Senate candidate Bernie Moreno, about what they think of the GOP pick.
