JD Vance’s rise to Vice President is remarkable. Born in Ohio, his 2016 memoir *Hillbilly Elegy* gained widespread attention. After serving in the military and working as a venture capitalist, Vance ran for Ohio Senate in 2022 and won with Donald Trump’s support. Despite past criticisms of Trump, they found common ground, leading to Vance’s selection as running mate.
