The Republican governor is seeking a second term while challenger Nan Whaley, a Democrat, hopes to regain a seat last won by her party 16 years earlier. DeWine won a surprisingly tight three-way primary in May as conservatives angered by his efforts to slow COVID-19 sought to unseat him. (AP Photo/David Richard, File) JUNE 2, 2022 FILE PHOTO
