A week after the Ohio Republican Party voted to endorse President Donald Trump-backed Vivek Ramaswamy, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost suspended his gubernatorial campaign on May 16.

In an email to supporters, the 68-year-old Yost said he will “continue to fight for Ohio” as attorney general through the end of his term in January 2027.
