Vance won by 6.1%, which was predicted in polling before the election was held.[16][17] Even though he lost, Ryan flipped four counties carried by Portman in re-election in 2016: Summit, Montgomery, Hamilton, and Lorain.
It is also the closest election since 1992.
Vance was supported by former President Donald J. Trump and became the only candidate in the seven statewide general election races funded by Trump's PAC to win.[18]
