Vance made the remarks at a rally in Ohio on Friday while campaigning for Republican candidates ahead of the November midterm elections.
“We've also got, I believe, a great gubernatorial candidate, but also a great next governor of Ohio, my friend Vivek Ramaswamy,” Vance said.
“I don't think that anybody needed to encourage Vivek to go to the polling location that day. When your name is on the ballot, nobody needs to make you go vote. But Vivek's going to make a great governor for the state of Ohio,” he added.
