COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) -- A former Republican governor of Ohio has said he will not vote for his party's presidential ticket in the upcoming election. John Kasich, who served as Ohio's 69th governor from 2011 to 2019, explained his opposition to former President Donald Trump's campaign in an X post this week. "Some people think that I hate Trump. I don't," Kasich said in the post. "I simply don't think America's president should be a person who fuels grievances to divide us and doesn't have a hopeful vision for our future. I'm a lifelong conservative Republican, but I will not be voting for Donald Trump." That also means that one of Ohio's two senators, J.D. Vance, won't get Kasich's vote as Trump's running mate. The former governor stopped short of endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris. However, Kasich made waves in the 2020 presidential election by endorsing President Joe Biden, even going so far as to speak in support of him at the Democratic National Convention. In 2016, Kasich went head-to-head with Trump in the Republican primary for president. The former governor won his home state of Ohio, eventually becoming the last candidate to drop out before Trump secured the nomination. Election Day is Nov. 5, and the voter registration deadline is on Monday.
