DGA Statement on Ohio GOP Primary Results

DGA Executive Director Meghan Meehan-Draper released the following statement in response to Vivek Ramaswamy becoming the Republican nominee for governor in Ohio:

“Vivek Ramaswamy is an out-of-touch presidential also-ran whose harmful agenda would drive costs even higher and make life harder for Ohio families already struggling to make ends meet. Ramaswamy called Ohioans ‘lazy’ and ‘mediocre,’ dismissed higher costs as a ‘perceived’ issue, and said that he thinks Medicare and Medicaid were a ‘mistake.’ That alone would be disqualifying, but he’s also pushing plans that would shutter schools and explode the sales tax, forcing working families to foot the bill for his expensive and deeply unpopular proposals.

“Ohioans aren’t buying Ramaswamy’s scams, they know they can’t afford him in the governor’s office, and we look forward to making sure he never gets anywhere near it.”
