COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - "Hillbilly Elegy" author JD Vance won Ohio´s contentious and hyper-競争の激しい GOP 上院 最初の／主要な on Tuesday, ブイ，浮標d by Donald Trump´s 裏書，是認 in a race that was an 早期に 実験（する） of the former 大統領，／社長´s 持つ／拘留する on his party as the midterm season kicks into high gear.
A onetime 信頼できる critic of Trump whose 2016 memoir about his Appalachian childhood 解除するd him to fame, Vance spent much of the （選挙などの）運動をする behind in the 投票s. But a late-行う／開催する／段階 裏書，是認 from Trump 押し進めるd him to frontrunner status and the two men downplayed Vance's past scathing 批評 of the former 大統領，／社長, with Vance 説 he was wrong.
In 受託するing the GOP 指名／任命, Vance struck a 統一するing トン, complimenting his 競争相手s - 含むing silencing boos for his most bitter 対抗者, former 明言する／公表する Treasurer Josh Mandel - and 誓約（する）ing to 控訴，上告 to the 明言する／公表する's many 穏健なs 長，率いるd into November after an exceptionally bitter （選挙などの）運動をする that, at one point, saw two 候補者s nearly come to blows on a 審議 行う／開催する／段階
"Now this （選挙などの）運動をする, I really think, was a 国民投票 on what 肉親，親類d of a 共和国の／共和党の Party we want, and what 肉親，親類d of a country we want," Vance told the （人が）群がる.
Tuesday´s contests 勧めるd in a more 競争の激しい 段階 of the midterm 最初の／主要な season, with closely watched races in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia scheduled for later this month. The 選挙 will 最高潮に達する in November, when 支配（する）／統制する of 議会, 知事´s mansions and 重要な 選挙s offices are at 火刑／賭ける.
Vance will 直面する 民主党員 Tim Ryan in the 総選挙 race to fill the seat 存在 vacated by retiring 共和国の／共和党の Sen. 略奪する Portman. The 10-称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 Democratic 下院議員, who easily won his three-way 最初の／主要な Tuesday night, will likely have an 上りの／困難な climb in a 明言する／公表する Trump won twice by an 8-point 利ざや. In a 可能性のある 警告 調印する for Ryan, 概略で twice as many 共和国の／共和党のs 参加するd in the 最初の／主要な than 民主党員s.

大統領 Joe Biden called Ryan late Tuesday to congratulate him on becoming the 指名された人, and Trump was also in touch with Vance.
一方／合間, Ohio's 共和国の／共和党の Gov. マイク DeWine 安全な・保証するd his party's 指名／任命 for a second 称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 and will take on 民主党員 Nan Whaley.
In 隣接地の Indiana, 現職の 共和国の／共和党のs in the 明言する／公表する House fended off 最初の／主要な 挑戦者s who 手配中の，お尋ね者 to 押し進める the 立法機関 その上の to the 権利. の中で the 概略で two dozen いわゆる liberty 候補者s in 共和国の／共和党の 法律を制定する races, one 敗北・負かすd a 10-称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 現職の in northern Indiana, while a leader of the movement lost his 最初の／主要な race.
The （選挙などの）運動をする is 強めるing at a volatile moment in the nation's politics. On the eve of this week's 最初の／主要なs, a 草案 U.S. 最高裁判所 opinion was 漏れるd that 示唆するs the 法廷，裁判所 could overturn the 1973 目印 魚の卵 v. Wade 決定／判定勝ち（する） that 合法化するd abortion 全国的な. While the 民主党員s decried the 草案, they suddenly have a （疑いを）晴らす, 統一するing messa ge they hope will 相殺する an さもなければ difficult political 気候 支配するd by 経済的な woes that 含む high インフレーション and gas prices.
Trump, 一方／合間, is using the 最初の／主要なs to build his 評判 as a GOP 政界の実力者 as he 検討する，考慮するs another 大統領の run a year after leaving office under the cloud of two 告発s and the Jan. 6, 2021, （ワシントンの）連邦議会議事堂 insurrection. A Trump spokesperson Tuesday took credit for the 結果 in the Ohio 上院 contest, 説 the former 大統領，／社長's 裏書，是認 "propelled (Vance) into a 命令（する）ing first place finish."
While Vance is the GOP 最初の／主要な's undisputed 勝利者, 運動ing up support in Ohio's 田舎の 地域s, there was 著名な support for Mandel and 明言する／公表する Sen. Matt Dolan, the only major 候補者 who did not 積極性 法廷，裁判所 Trump. His traction 示唆するs there remains appetite in the party for 非，不，無-Trump 代案／選択肢s, 特に in a 明言する／公表する with a long history of electing 穏健なs, 含むing DeWine, Portman and former Ohio 知事-turned-Trump critic John Kasich.
Dolan notched strong 業績／成果s in Ohio's 主要都市の communities, 特に around Cleveland and Columbus. Mandel, 一方／合間, also 設立する some 田舎の support.
At the Strongsville library in 郊外の Cleveland, Joanne Mondak, 71, said she 投票（する）d for Dolan because the 残り／休憩（する） of the 候補者s are "nutcakes" who are "too much Trump."
Ohio, once a bellwether 明言する／公表する, is now decidedly 共和国の／共和党の, 提起する／ポーズをとるing a challenge for Ryan, who has distanced himself from the 進歩／革新的な wing of his party during the race. （選挙などの）運動をするing in sweatshirts and baseball caps, he has fashioned himself as a blue-collar 改革運動家 fighting for working families.
During his 受託 speech, Ryan grew emotional as he spoke about the community his steelworker grandfather was able to build while 持つ／拘留するing a 井戸／弁護士席-支払う／賃金ing union 職業.
"I am 絶対 in my bones 確かな that we can do this if we come together, and it´s not about finding our differences. It´s not about hate," he said.
ブイ，浮標d by historical 傾向 s and Biden's 深い unpopularity, 共和国の／共和党のs are 楽観的な about 奪い返すing the House and 上院 come November. A new 大統領，／社長's party almost always loses in seats in その後の midterm 選挙s and 共和国の／共和党のs hope 急に上がるing インフレーション, high energy prices and ぐずぐず残る 失望／欲求不満s over the country´s 扱うing of the COVID-19 pandemic will その上の 上げる their prospects.
民主党員s, 一方／合間, are banking the GOP - with Trump´s help - will elect 候補者s so extreme they 証明する unelectable come November. Vance, in particular, has drawn 解雇する／砲火／射撃 for 解任するing Russia´s 侵略 of ウクライナ共和国 as 非，不，無 of the 部隊d 明言する／公表するs' 商売／仕事 and 告発する／非難するing Biden of trying to 故意に kill Trump 投票者s by 許すing 違法な 麻薬s to cross the southern 国境.
"By all 権利s, history tells us that the 民主党員s are going to lose 支配（する）／統制する of the House," said Dale Butland, a Democratic strategist in Ohio. "By all 権利s, we should lose 支配（する）／統制する of the 上院, too. However, the only thing that could save us is if the 共和国の／共和党のs 指名する a bunch of far-権利 crazies that are 容認できない in a 総選挙."
While DeWine is 広範囲にわたって known in Ohio after a 40-year political career, he 直面するd 猛烈な／残忍な （激しい）反発 from 保守的なs over the COVID-19 shutdowns and 委任統治（領）s he 課すd during the 早期に months of the pandemic.
DeWine´s three 対抗者s - former U.S. Rep. Jim Renacci, former 明言する／公表する Rep. Ron Hood and 農業者 Joe Blystone - all tapped into that 怒り／怒る, but appear to have 分裂（する） the far-権利 投票（する）. Still, DeWine didn´t take any chances and 注ぐd millions into advertising during the race´s final weeks.
On the Democratic 味方する, Whaley became the first woman in 明言する／公表する history to receive a major party´s 支援. She 敗北・負かすd former Cincinnati 市長 John Cranley in a race that drew 比較して little attention as much of the 明言する／公表する 焦点（を合わせる）d on the contentious 上院 共和国の／共和党の 最初の／主要な and the 現在進行中の redistricting 合法的な 戦う／戦い. Whaley had the support of the 明言する／公表する´s 最高の，を越す 民主党員, U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, a popula r 世帯 指名する, while Cranley had the 支援 of feminist icon Gloria Steinem.
The two 候補者s saw 注目する，もくろむ-to-注目する，もくろむ on most major 問題／発行するs - guns, abortion 権利s, social 司法（官） - but Whaley had 繰り返して pointed out that Cranley only recently said he was プロの／賛成の-choice.
Trump-支援するd 国務長官 Frank LaRose also won his party´s 指名／任命 for another 称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語.
In the House, 共和国の／共和党の Max Miller, a former Trump （選挙などの）運動をする and White House 補佐官, won the GOP 指名／任命 in the sprawling new 7th 地区 in northeast Ohio, にもかかわらず 主張s from his ex-girlfriend, former White House 圧力（をかける） 長官 Stephanie Grisham, that he grew violent with her as their 関係 悪化するd. He has 否定するd the 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金s.
Miller was 最初 新採用するd to challenge 共和国の／共和党の Rep. Anthony Gonzalez, one of the 10 House 共和国の／共和党のs who 投票（する）d in 好意 of Trump´s 告発. But Gonzalez chose to retire instead.
