BREAKING: Del Ray resident tapped as Trump running mate

BREAKING: Del Ray resident tapped as Trump running mate

Author, Ohio Senator, Del Ray resident and yarn bomb victim J.D. Vance has been tapped as the Vice President pick for Republican Candidate Donald Trump.

Vance moved into an over $1.5 million home in Del Ray back in 2023, which was followed shortly by the home being yarn bombed and ringed with messages criticizing Vance’s opposition to LGBTQ rights. Republicans have often received a frosty reception in the predominately liberal Alexandria.

Vance was endorsed by Trump in his 2022 Senate race and has built a political career on supporting former President Trump — after formerly criticizing Trump’s influence on the American working class — and repeating talking points about the 2020 election being stolen.
