GOP gubernatorial candidate in key state touts getting ‘results’ in race against Ramaswamy

Washington, DC – Ohio Republican State Attorney Dave Yost, who is running for governor against a technological entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy In the primary, he spoke with Fox News Digital about his campaign and what he considers a key difference between the two campaigns.

“We agree on terrible things,” Yost, who was in Washington to celebrate with national champion Ohio State Buckeyes College Football team in White housesaid Fox News Digital about the Gubernator race.

“The difference is that I work on the record of the results, not just rhetoric.”

Part of that record, Yost explained, is time as a state auditor in Ohi, where he helped detect $260 million efficiency savings.

“I was a reach before Doge was cool,” Yost said, adding later that “almost no one” he spoke with in Ohi opposed the consumption of fraud and waste that takes place with Doge in the midst of a vocal democratic return.

Yost has also published his record of crime and corruption of the public as a state lawyer since 2019 and suggested that his experience distinguishes him from Ramaswamy.

“We fought for the Constitution, for the rights of the Ohihians, the fight against corruption in public,” Yost said. “More than 170 people went to jail because of my work and work of my team. So, we were in the trenches. We don’t need training in the workplace, and I think that record of the results will make a difference for Ohioance.”

A recent survey shows that Ramaswamy, supported by President Trump, Elon Musk, Ambassador Jim Jordan and others, holds the command leadership in the race, but Yost remains optimistic.

“Obviously he has to go a long way, but I love Ohio,” Yost said. “I came back and talked to people. The reception was amazing. People are eager for a new American first leadership in Ohi. And I’m really excited about where we’re going.”

One specific question that Yost believes was clearer where the death penalty was.

“I don’t know where my opponent is on that, “Yost said.” He didn’t talk about it. I imagine that we have campaigns and we will find out. But watch, I support the death penalty. “

Yost explained that “protective measures” must be used and emphasized that “there is no transmission”, but said that “we need” capital punishment.

“What do you do with a guy who serves life without conditional discharge and then kills a prison guard or chef inside?” Said Yost. “The family loses a loved one for this murder. Was it free? What, will we betray them a second life punishment? So, at least in that circumstance, we have to have a death sentence, and then we just quarrel when we use it.”

“But the death penalty is not working in Ohi right now. We have not abolished it. We still have a promise about it as the ultimate justice. We have not done anyone since 2018. Average time that someone on the mortal Kara was waiting for their date with justice is 22 years. It is not obliged, or we have to be ongoing, and we do not need to be in progress, in order We do not need to be in our work, and we do not need to be in our work, and we do not need to be in our work, and we do not need to paddle on their date with justice. “

A person close to Ramaswamy campaign told Fox News Digital that a team “I look forward to helping Dave Yost to be successful in his next venture, whatever he decided to do. “

Another local question in Ohi for whom Yost told Fox News Digital, he is concerned that the recent impetus of professional sports teams is to provide taxpayers’ funds for the stadium.

Yost expressed concern about the fact that taxpayers were on a hook for several hundred million dollars.

“I’m not really sure that taxpayers should throw tax money on these large public stadium projects, “Yost said.” I mean, these bonds, these taxes will be paid by people who cannot afford to go into a professional game in many ways. It affects me as unfair. But beyond that, we have no limiting principle here. “

“We have all these different sports teams. We already have three of them now, since Browns said we wanted $ 600 million. Bengali reports, and they want $ 350 million and FC Cincinnati says,” Well, what about us? “And soon we spend billions of dollars on sports stadiums used in one city for a few days a year, if we could spend that money on any number of other things, whether we talk about roads, bridges, economic development, or we talk about reducing taxes.

Fox News Digital asked Yost what most often hears when traveling to the state by talking to voters, and said that the issues of the economy and the “kitchen table” were the most widespread, but pointed out that Trump’s tariff policies, which Democrats have been abused, more popular than the media.

“Currently, everyone is watching the world economy are remodeling, and unlike what I hear from the disaster, which the elite press has foreseen on the shores, this is a much different situation on the field in Ohi,” Yost said. “I talk to many companies that think it will be good for them, that honest and reciprocal types of stores will bring a new revival in Ohio and in their industry, even though they see some pain and all say that now.”

Ultimately, Yost told Fox News Digital that he believes that his “record of the results” shows that the candidate with “experience and vision and knowledge” to “bring Ohio to the bright future for us.”
