Is it true that the 2026 US Senate election in Ohio is a special election for the seat vacated by JD Vance when he became vice president?
Yes. A Wikipedia article states the 2026 Ohio Senate race is a special election to fill the term won in 2022 by JD Vance, who resigned in 2025 to become vice president; a JD Vance article confirms he resigned the Senate seat to become vice president.
