The 2028 Democratic presidential nominee will likely be a governor
Governors have both the responsibility to deliver for their constituents and the power to do so.
An armed man, 38-year-old Patrick Havas, has been arrested in Ohio after attempting to attack Democratic candidate Amy Acton during an event at the Canfield Fair. The Ohio State Highway Patrol stopped Havas before he reached Acton, who was not injured in the incident. Havas, from Canfield, was carrying two pistols and is facing multiple charges including misdemeanor assault and disorderly conduct.
Acton and her campaign team expressed gratitude for the swift action of law enforcement and condemned the violence. Republican gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy also condemned the incident, stating that candidates should be able to meet voters without threats or violence.
