With Sen. JD Vance poised to take on the role of vice president, here is how the state will fill the looming Senate vacancy.
"The appointee shall hold office until the fifteenth day of December succeeding the next regular state election that occurs more than one hundred eighty days after the vacancy happens," Ohio law states. Alex Nitzberg is a writer for Fox News Digital.
"At that next regular state election, a special election to fill the vacancy shall be held, provided, that when the unexpired term ends within one year immediately following the date of such regular state election, an election to fill the unexpired term shall not be held, and the appointment shall be for the unexpired term," Ohio law stipulates.
