Governor-elect, Ohio. 178 tracked projects are located in Ohio, which this official represents.

Takes office in January 2027. Won a 2026 race that AP has called. Results stay unofficial until the state certifies them.

"As governor, I will take immediate action and support a conditional moratorium on data centers to ensure they cover one hundred percent of their utility costs, exclusively build with union labor, operate with full transparency, adhere to Ohio's environmental standards, support the needs of local communities, and bring jobs to former industrial areas that have been left behind"
