The Trump-endorsed candidates who have won their primaries

The effect of former President Trump’s endorsements was on full display Tuesday as each of the 22 candidates he backed won their primaries in Ohio and Indiana.

Some of the most notable included Trump critic-turned-Trump acolyte J.D. Vance, who is running for retiring Sen. Rob Portman’s (R-Ohio) Senate seat; former Trump aide Max Miller, who won the Republican primary for Ohio’s 7th Congressional District; and incumbent Rep. Greg Pence (R-Ind.), the brother of the former vice president.

The results underscore the weight the former president’s endorsements hold within the GOP, though a bigger test looms in November.

Below is a list of Trump-backed candidates who won their respective Republican primaries so far this year:

OHIO (May 3)

Statewide races

Secretary of State Frank LaRose (incumbent)

Attorney General Dave Yost (incumbent)

Treasurer Robert Sprague (incumbent)

Auditor Keith Faber (incumbent)

Ohio Senate race

J.D. Vance, running for Sen. Rob Portman’s (R-Ohio) Senate seat: In what was considered the largest test of Trump’s endorsement in a competitive Republican primary thus far, Vance won his primary and is now set to challenge Rep. Tim Ryan (D) for the seat. The win was an example of how the former past Trump critic could later clench the former president’s endorsement and win the competitive GOP primary.

House races

Rep. Steve Chabot (OH-1, incumbent)

Rep. Brad Wenstrup (OH-2, incumbent)

Rep. Jim Jordan (OH-4, incumbent)

Rep. Robert Latta (OH-5, incumbent)

Rep. Warren Davidson (OH-8, incumbent)

Rep. Michael Turner (OH-10, incumbent)

Rep. Troy Balderson (OH-12, incumbent)

Madison Gesiotto Gilbert (OH-13): In addition to being endorsed by Trump, the House candidate also received backing from House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik’s (R-N.Y) super PAC in March.

INDIANA (May 3)

Rep. Jackie Walorski (IND-2, incumbent)

Rep. Jim Banks (IND-3, incumbent)

Rep. Jim Baird (IND-4, incumbent)

Rep. Victoria Spartz (IND-5, incumbent)

Rep. Ronny Jackson (TX-13; incumbent)

Rep. Randy Weber (TX-14; incumbent)
