Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine Appoints Lt. Gov. Jon Husted to Fill J.D. Vance’s U.S. Senate Seat

EXCERPT:

DEWINE: “I came to the conclusion, as you see, that the person who is best suited to be the United States senator is a person who has been close to me for the last six years, a person who almost daily I work with, and that is Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted. I have worked with him, I have seen him. I know his knowledge of Ohio. I know his heart. I know what he cares about. I know his skills. And all of that tells me that he is the right person for this, for this job. In every major decision that I have made in the last six years as governor of the state of Ohio, Jon Husted has played a part in that decision.”
