Cory Bowman
Cory Bowman, the younger half-brother of U.S. Vice President JD Vance, is a political newcomer running for mayor of Cincinnati as a Republican. At 36, he serves as a pastor at an evangelical church and co-owns a local coffee shop. Bowman's political aspirations were sparked by attending the inauguration of Donald Trump and JD Vance. He aims to tackle issues such as financial corruption and the city's status as a sanctuary city. Despite finishing second in the primary with 13% of the vote, his path to victory in a traditionally Democratic city remains challenging.
