Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval advances to fall election
CINCINNATI — Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval has advanced to the fall election in a three-way nonpartisan primary to lead Ohio's third-largest city.
The top two vote-getters in the contest will go on to compete in November's general election.
Cory Bowman, Vice President JD Vance's half brother, is an evangelical pastor and coffee shop owner. Neither he nor fellow Republican challenger Brian Frank, a procurement professional, have held public office before but said they didn't want to see the incumbent Democrat's reelection bid go unchallenged in the heavily Democratic city.
Were Bowman to pull an upset, he would be the latest family member of a president or vice president to serve in office. That includes the brother of Mike Pence, President Donald Trump’s first vice president, who was elected to Congress during Trump's previous administration.
