I wrote you a note

Hi, it’s Vivek Ramaswamy.

I wanted you to hear this directly from me: I JUST announced my candidacy for Governor of Ohio.

In a moment, I’m going to ask you to become a Founding Donor to this historic campaign – but first, I’d like to explain why if you’ll indulge me for a moment.

WHY RUN NOW?

President Trump winning re-election in November was not just another political victory – it was a seismic realignment for our country. He won every swing state. He improved his vote share of minorities and young voters. We won the House AND Senate. And heck, he even won the popular vote.

It was the honor of a lifetime to rally voters in battleground states, campaign on college campuses to turn out Gen-Z for Trump, and promote his America First vision at rally after rally.

Right now, we have a once-in-a-generation chance to make real, lasting change to the country we know and love. It’s an opportunity to not just ticker around the edges of the Federal Government, but to upend it completely.

This is our moment to GUT the managerial bureaucracy, FIRE anyone connected to the weaponization of our own government against us, SLASH the size and scope of the administrative state, and usher in the GOLDEN AGE for America!

But the Deep State is already putting up the fight of its life. They’re resisting change at every turn. Make no mistake – we can’t afford to squander this historic opportunity. That’s why President Trump needs trusted partnerships at the state level RIGHT NOW!

WHY OHIO?

This one’s easy. I was born and raised here in the Buckeye State and graduated from St. Xavier – a Catholic high school in Cincinnati. My wife, Apporva, and I live outside Columbus, raising our two boys here. I’ve started multiple businesses in Ohio. I’ve also known JD Vance since college and campaigned all over the state for our excellent new Senator, Bernie Moreno.

The people here are honest, have steel in their spines, and embody the City on a Hill spirit that our country was founded upon. As Governor, I’d be honored to represent them and the values they stand for.

WHY GOVERNOR?

Having traveled across the country, met with hundreds of politicians, ran multiple businesses, and seen how deals really get cut in The Swamp, I have never been more certain that REAL change only gets done with buy-in at the executive level.

We saw up close and personal the failure of Democrat rule with Joe Biden in control of the Federal Government. We also see Democrat governors like Gavin Newsom and Kathy Hochul drive their states into ruin. On the other hand, we now see President Trump act quickly and decisively to fix our country by deporting illegal criminals, moving to cut taxes, securing our border, gutting DEI, and obliterating the Deep State. True leadership can change everything.

That’s why I’m running for Governor in my home state of Ohio. I will partner with President Trump – just like I did on the campaign trail – at the state level to Make America Great Again. I will be a change agent for our state and set an example of efficient, conservative governance for the rest of the country.

So there you have it. That’s the “why” behind my run for Governor.

It would be the honor of a lifetime to have your support now that I’ve officially launched my campaign. I’m humbly asking you to become a Founding Donor today with a gift of any size.
