When a candidate wins every single county in a state primary, political insiders have a word for it. Not a "strong performance." Not a "commanding victory." A **mandate**. Vivek Ramaswamy just won all 88 counties in Ohio. 82.47% of the vote. His opponent — Casey Putsch, a YouTube car... guy — got 17.53%. That number isn't a loss. It's a message. When a challenger can only pull 17% in a contested primary, it means the party didn't split. It means the base didn't hedge. It means there was no protest vote worth counting. In Ohio GOP politics, that's not a primary result. That's a declaration. Ramaswamy now faces Democrat Amy Acton in November. 88 counties. 82.5%. Zero cracks in the coalition. Ohio is red — and the math just made it official. I'll keep you updated. Turn on notifications. 🚨show more

It’s a “mandate” when one party wins over another party, you daft cunt. Putsch had $120k and 5 months—and got 18% of the vote. You’re about to see a fucken “mandate” when we put Amy Acton in charge in order to punish the GOP.

A primary election where all candidates are republican, in which only republicans can vote, and a republican wins, doesn't indicate shit about the state becoming a red state. Guess who also won every county in Ohio for the gubernatorial primary? Democrat nominee, Amy Acton. Sure, Acton ran uncontested, but still "won" every county.

One would have to win the general for a mandate, pal. There may be write-in candidates coming…

8% of the overall Ohio voting population voted for him! @VivekGRamaswamy fucking sucks! Make Ohio Great Again

FFS, you can't even write a post on your own, you have to have AI do it. 🤣🤡 "Ohio is red and the math made it official." IT WAS A GOP PRIMARY, moron. Of course the results were "red". 🤣 Good luck with that "mandate".

While you guys stand in your political machine circle jerk, patting each other on the back and jerking each other off, let’s reframe this… Vivek is extremely well known. He’s basically been campaigning for 8 YEARS with a huge war chest. @CaseyPutschOhio started his campaign 6 months ago with 1/1,000,000th of Viveks GOP budget…in that short time, he earned almost 20% of the vote…you stupid neocons and uniparty turds should be crapping your pants right now. Vivek is going to lose to the Democrat…there’s no mandate. People voted for him because of his name recognition and they falsely believed he had a better chance of beating the Dems…which he won’t. Ohio is about to become a communist state just like New York, Colorado, and California…run by Democrats.

Casey isn’t a “YouTube car guy.” He’s an inventor. Something you nor Vivek will event be. And of course Vivek won every county. More people in every county voted for Vivek than Casey. That’s how math works you fucking retard.

The Canadian explaining Ohio politics, 🤦‍♂️😂

Thomas A Whitaker is a Foreigner. Account based in Canada, bio says Bogota. Another one not from Ohio pushing Vivek Ramaswarmy. Vivek has No real support in the state of Ohio.

Yeah this isn’t in Ohio Tom

You’re fucked in the general without us. Good luck. #NeverVivek

Dude. Turnout that voted for the jeet was @ 25% of Republicans in Ohio. You think he's gonna win the general with that kind of showing? Y'all just don't understand it seems. You will see come November. The non-MAGA conservatives are staying home. Also, no libertarian or independent votes to depend on. Keep sunshine pumping. The real coalition voters are about to teach all y'all a very painful lesson. You don't even understand that your only chance to prevent this bloodbath was to help grassroots, non-rino candidates WIN in the primaries. Now none of us are gonna have any reason to vote for anything but local come November. Unfortunately, I don't even think the @GOP will learn from this lesson. They are going to continue to pump millions into the campaigns of their buddies, lobbyists picks & those that can be controlled next cycle. They will let this country burn under leftist control rather than let anyone who will actually work for their constituents take power from their cabal.

Gosh, what a shocker. 🙄 The famous guy beat the no-name guy in a country where our president is a reality TV star. Enjoy Pharmasmarmy, I guess.

The Ohio GOP didnt give us a choice. And thats why they will lose Ohio. They dont understand.

This is a dumb af post lol “Republican won 83% of the Republican votes” Wow big success. Very performance

Actually, it means a very low 800,000 turn out, out of 2.6 million rep. voters and 2.8 million Independent voters.

Please don’t be misleading. Amy Acton (D) got about 50k more votes than Ramaswamy. Yes, he won the Republican vote, but you could only fill out a single Democrat, Republican or Libertarian ballot. They were not combined. I’m an Ohio resident and I didn’t vote for either one.

This tweet was brought to you by…. 🥁🥁🥁 ChatGPT 🙄

Nah. I projected Putsch at 18-20%. He got 17.9%. I was off by 0.1%. Putsch didn't have the GOP money behind him or support. My father is glued to Fox News and never heard of Putch. -Bad sign for Vivek.

Or maybe they see Vivek as the weaker candidate so the Dems who vote in Republican primaries chose him?

Oh please. Ohio gop is corrupt af. Had they not thrown their weight behind vivek a year ago, we’d have a different nominee. Tressel would have mopped him. Yost would have beaten him. Ffs even josh mandel would have beaten him. Ohio will vote for acton. She’ll be way better

You idiot! It was a republican primary, he was running against another republican. It would have been ALL RED if either of them won! MORON!

I will NEVER support this dishonest excuse for a human being. Never ever voted for a democrat governor, but I will be this November. Fuck you for inflicting this sanctimonious POS upon us.

LOL. Hold your flex. It was a fucking GOP primary in Ohio. Of course MAGA is going to dominate. You failed to mention that Democrats beat the GOP in voter turnout yesterday by 60K…and they didn’t even have a governor primary to vote on. 🤷‍♂️ You are SO fucking cooked

No. It's 120k vs the establishment and millions on a campaign lol. Thats the difference. It's like beating someone in a wheelchair at a race then bragging about it like you did something spectacular lol.

It was a primary. Republicans voted for Republicans. Democrats voted for Democrats. ALL this shows is the majority of republicans want him to be Governor. It doesn't mean he'll win.

142,000 votes off of $121,000 raised is pretty good actually

Nice job @VivekGRamaswamy ! Praying for you!

Triple Trump voter here - I will NOT vote for data center Vivek in November. I’ll vote other ppl down ballot, but he can lose to Acton. The GOP needs to learn the painful lesson that you do NOT preemptively endorse a candidate BEFORE a primary. It defeats the whole purpose.

Mandates don’t happen in Primaries. Nominees are selected in Primaries. Mandates happen in General Elections when the candidates win a plurality of the vote from all citizens.

A mandate to... not be the Youtube car guy? Also how would this be a "mandate" when you haven't won the general election? It's the primary against the Youtube car guy, calm down

A lot of Putsch voters won't show up in November for Ramaswamy.

Acton was unopposed. That 17% was Democrats attack voting against Vivek.

Not sure how a primary could be a mandate, but keep manifesting, maybe The Secret was true.
