Ohio officials' endorsements of Donald Trump, 2016, 2020 and 2024

The research archive lists 245 rows; several rows cite the same underlying endorsement under more than one section, so after merging rows that share the same person, cycle, and stance, this set holds 202 distinct endorsements. **245 entries compiled from public records, campaign announcements, and news coverage.** This is the most complete list findable through public sources as of September 2026 — it is NOT a claim that every single individual who ever endorsed Trump in Ohio is captured; no complete public database of every local endorsement exists. Statewide and federal officials should be complete or near-complete; the 'faith/community leader' and local-official tiers are necessarily a representative sample of what news coverage documented, not an exhaustive census.
