💥 VIVEK RAMASWAMY SHOCKS OHIO POLITICS: PICKS STATE SENATE PRESIDENT AS RUNNING MATE IN HISTORIC GOVERNORIAL PUSH.c1

On the Democratic side, former Ohio Health Director Dr. Amy Acton has emerged as Ramaswamy’s likely general election opponent. Acton recently chose David Pepper, a seasoned Democratic organizer and former Hamilton County Commissioner, as her running mate — setting the stage for a highly competitive gubernatorial match-up.

Ohio has not elected a Democratic governor in over two decades, but with growing voter engagement and spirited campaign activity, the 2026 contest is far from predetermined.

The Ramaswamy-McColley ticket symbolizes a broader shift in Ohio’s political landscape — one where traditional experience meets outsider populism. For supporters, the duo represents a new kind of leadership ready to confront economic, regulatory, and cultural challenges facing the state. For detractors, it raises questions about ideology versus effective governance.

As Ramaswamy continues to define his vision for Ohio — tackling issues like education reform, economic growth, and state government efficiency — McColley’s presence promises to shape how that vision translates into law.

With the primary election approaching and national eyes turning toward Ohio, the stakes have never been higher in a contest that could signal broader trends across American state politics.

BREAKING: Nolan Arenado’s wife breaks down in tears as she says goodbye to St. Louis — “We started in this city, and we will take St. Louis with us for the rest of our lives.”. Y1

 

St. Louis has lost more than just a superstar. The city has just said goodbye to a family — with tears, gratitude, and irreplaceable memories.

On the day news of Nolan Arenado’s departure from the St. Louis Cardinals spread throughout MLB, the person who silenced the fan community wasn’t the league’s top defensive star himself, but his wife. In an emotional message shared privately and quickly going viral, she broke down in tears as she expressed her deep gratitude to the city, to the fans, and to the years that shaped their family life.

“We started in this city, where we lived a full and meaningful life. Thank you for being tolerant of my husband’s mistakes and for being there for our family. Wherever we are, St. Louis will always be the place we cherish most.”

 

That wasn’t the farewell of a player transferring teams. It was a goodbye to a home.

Since Nolan Arenado donned the Cardinals’ uniform, St. Louis hasn’t treated him like a blockbuster signing. The city welcomed him as part of the family. Evenings at Busch Stadium, applause for incredible third-corner catches, moments of triumph and quiet—all became part of the Arenado family’s daily life.

His wife spoke of it with emotion: St. Louis is where they “began”—not just professionally, but in life. Here, they built a home, nurtured family values, and learned to live under the immense pressure of competition while still being loved like ordinary people.

In a sports world increasingly cold and calculating due to numbers and contracts, those words carried rare weight.

One detail in the message deeply moved Cardinals fans: “Thank you for being tolerant of my husband’s mistakes.”

It was a deeply human acknowledgment. Nolan Arenado is a defensive legend, an icon of excellence. But he is also human—he has had his lows, his moments of criticism, his moments of underperformance.

And St. Louis, true to its identity, did not turn its back. The fans here may be demanding, but they are loyal. They criticize, but they don’t abandon. They demand high standards, but they always make room for empathy.

Arenado’s wife understood that. And she spoke out on behalf of her family.

There was no bitterness. No blame for the management. No anger at fate. Only gratitude.

 

The message didn’t mention the reason Nolan left the Cardinals. It didn’t address the future. It didn’t talk about his next team. All she chose to say was about St. Louis — about the place that gave them a “full and meaningful life.”
