Columbus, OH: Today, in a Historic and Bold move, the Ohio Republican Party State Central Committee voted Unanimously to Endorse former President Donald J. Trump to be the Republican Party Candidate in the 2024 General Election! What makes this Endorsement historic is that the State Central Committee Endorsed Trump BEFORE the December 20th filing deadline! In the past, the Committee has been hesitant to endorse candidates in the primary at all, let alone before the filing deadline.
In a vote that brought TEA Party and Liberty minded committee members together with establishment and more moderate Republican members, in a rare show of unity, they basically declared that the primary in Ohio is over and Donald J. Trump is the winner. Polls show that Trump is leading the Republican Field in Ohio by a huge 50% margin just like in many other states. This move is a huge win for President Trump who recently called on the Republican National Committee (RNC) to cancel all remaining debates in order to save money so that it can be used to defeat the Democrats next November.
This move comes just days after the Koch-funded Americans for Prosperity (AFP) declared their $70 million support for candidate Nikki Haley in an effort to defeat Trump. It is also a blow to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and to Washington Establishment Republican and lobbyists who are desperate to stop Trump from being the Republican Nominee in 2024. This move by the Ohio Republican Party makes it pretty much impossible for any other candidate to win, without winning Ohio.
