Vance, a <em>New York Times<\/em> best-selling author, is tied for first place in the Ohio GOP Senate primary race, a new poll shows.<\/p>\n<p>The Protect Ohio Values PAC <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HenryJGomez\/status\/1511684671486185472?s=20&#038;t=3_j24L2J6D3keoSLYKM4NA\">poll<\/a>, released on Wednesday, finds that Vance has gained four points since February \u2014 running at 18 percent and tied with fellow Republicans Mike Gibbons and Josh Mandel, who are also at 18 percent.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>Most significant, though, is that the poll shows Gibbons stagnating with 18 percent after having failed to gain any traction since February, whereas Vance and Mandel have each risen to the top of the pack among the five leading candidates.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2020\/01\/27\/ohio-gop-chairwoman-defends-more-refugees\/\">Jane Timken<\/a>, the former chairwoman of the Ohio Republican Party, has dropped in the polls from 12 percent in February to just nine percent in March among primary voters. Matt Dolan, a longtime critic of former President Trump, has similarly flatlined. Dolan has gained one percent since February.<\/p>\n<p>The poll had voters watch the PAC\u2019s latest ad for Vance where he outlines a fierce immigration agenda that includes fully funding Trump\u2019s border wall, ending welfare benefits for illegal aliens, and defunding sanctuary jurisdictions.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>After voters watched the ad, Vance\u2019s support shot up to 30 percent against Gibbons\u2019 18 percent and Mandel\u2019s 16 percent. In this scenario, Dolan trails with 12 percent, while Timken stumbles behind with 10 percent.<\/p>\n[embedded content]\n<p>Vance, in recent weeks, has set out a bold \u201cAmerica First\u201d policy agenda that bucks the state\u2019s big business and political establishment. Notably, Vance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/03\/15\/j-d-vance-snubs-chamber-of-commerce-as-other-senate-gop-candidates-vie-for-support\/\">refused to meet<\/a> with the Ohio Chamber of Commerce as Gibbons, Mandel, Timken, and Dolan accepted the invite.<\/p>\n<p>The Chamber of Commerce was an ardent opponent of Trump\u2019s policy initiatives, specifically on immigration and trade. In 2017, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/2017\/04\/19\/trumps-h-1b-crackdown-upsets-chamber-commerce\/\">Chamber slammed<\/a> Trump for cracking down on abuse within the H-1B visa program that routinely outsources Americans\u2019 jobs to foreign visa workers.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018, for instance, the Chamber <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2018\/07\/02\/chamber-of-commerce-vows-to-fight-trumps-popular-tariffs\/\">vowed to fight<\/a> Trump\u2019s tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. During the 2020 election, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2020\/09\/01\/chamber-commerce-endorses-23-house-democrats-re-election\/\">Chamber endorsed 23<\/a> House Democrats against their Republican counterparts even as Trump reportedly urged them to reconsider.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>At the latest debate, Vance continued promoting his populist policy vision, endorsing plans to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has yet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/mitch-mcconnell-ban-stock-trading-lawmakers-take-a-look-2022-2\">to endorse<\/a> the plan.<\/p>\n<p>About <a href=\"https:\/\/morningconsult.com\/2022\/01\/19\/ban-stock-trading-congress-poll\/\">63 percent<\/a> of Americans support banning Congress from trading stocks, including nearly 6-in-10 Republican voters and 64 percent of swing voters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a great way to end corruption in this country where you\u2019ve got people like Nancy Pelosi who buy a stock who get rich off of it, who uses their public trust to get wealthy for themselves,\u201d Vance <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JDVancePress\/status\/1511495121325498376\">said<\/a>. \u201cYou know who hates that legislation? Well, of course, Nancy Pelosi but also a lot of Republican leaders. If you\u2019re willing to actually challenge the leadership of your own party, the political class in this country, you can get things done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The poll was conducted by Fabrizio, Lee &#038; Associates and surveyed 800 likely GOP primary voters from March 30 to 31 across Ohio. The margin of error is +\/- 3.46 percent.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>John Binder is a reporter for Breitbart News.
