Ohio's race for governor pits former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, a Republican, against Democrat Amy Acton, a former state health advisor, according to NPR.
Democrats view the contest as a rare opportunity to win the governorship in a state that typically votes Republican in statewide elections, NPR's report said.
Ramaswamy, who ran for the Republican presidential nomination, has built a national profile in recent years, while Acton previously served as a state health official, according to the report. NPR's coverage does not detail the candidates' specific policy platforms or the current state of polling in the race.
