VANDALIA, Ohio – Former President Donald Trump predicted unexpected Republican successes in the midterm elections during a campaign rally Saturday in Vandalia. He stated, "We are going to have a big, big surprise." Trump campaigned for Republican candidates vying for Ohio’s Senate and gubernatorial positions.

Trump spoke in support of J.D. Vance, the Republican Senate candidate. Vance is challenging Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan in a race deemed competitive. Trump also endorsed incumbent Republican Governor Mike DeWine, who is seeking re-election against Democrat Nan Whaley.

The former president previously endorsed both Vance and DeWine in their respective primary campaigns earlier this year. He held the rally at the Dayton International Airport, drawing attendees ahead of the November 8 elections. Trump characterized the political environment as challenging but expressed confidence in the Republican party's prospects.
