Yes, the last Ohio governor's race just ended a few months ago. But that's not stopping Republican Matt Mayer from announcing he's running in 2026.
would be the first to tell you that he's a data and policy nerd and he doesn't like Ohio's numbers.
Outside the Columbus and Cincinnati areas, the job losses over the past two decades have been staggering and rural areas have seen an exodus of residents in the past 10 years. Mayer stabs his finger at color maps and charts and says"I'm just fed up. Things have got to change." Mayer, 51, of Dublin, decided he's the guy to make the changes. A Republican, Mayer is announcing that he's running for Ohio governor in 2026.He pledges to focus on nearly two dozen agenda items, that he says will improve Ohio's trajectory.
What does he want to do? Make Ohio a right-to-work state, ramp up regulatory reforms, freeze state spending, eliminate the state income tax, get rid of, put a 20-year limit on holding all state offices, and cut the pay of the governor and lawmakers and replace it with a pay-for-performance system. If Mayer stays in the race, he may face well-known Republican officeholders such as Lt. Gov. Jon Husted and Attorney General Dave Yost. Gov. Mike DeWine cannot run again because of term limits.
