Vice President-elect will resign his upper chamber seat and trigger a selection process followed by a special election.

Gov. Mike DeWine will appoint someone to replace Ohio Sen. JD Vance after he resigns to become vice president.

Gov. Mike DeWine's phone is blowing up with calls over Ohio's soon-to-be vacant U.S. Senate seat, but he's not giving away who's in line for the job. Sen. JD Vance won the vice presidency Tuesday, just two years after he was first elected to the Senate.
