Who will be OH's next US Senator?

Sherrod Brown-D wins re-election next year.
JD Vance-R is up for re-election in 2028. There are 2 Democratic US House members from OH that are strong candidates for statewide office in OH in 2028. Greg Landsman-D and Emilia Sykes-D. I will pick Landsman because he comes from a safer Democratic District and is 10 years older than Sykes. Landsman was born in 1976, Sykes was born in 1986.
Sherrod Brown is not expected to be in the US Senate until he leaves in a body bag. He is going to be 72 years old in 2024. The latest Sherrod Brown leaves is in 2042 or 2048 if he wants to be in the US Senate after 90 years old.
Greg Landsman runs against JD Vance in 2028.
Emilia Sykes runs to replace Sherrod Brown in 2036.

JD Vance-OH will be the 2nd most vulnerable Republican US Senator up for re-election in 2028 after Ron Johnson-WI and Budd-NC.
Johnson’s 2028 Democratic opponent will be either Lt Governor Sara Rodriguez,Secretary of State Sarah Godlewski,or Attorney General Josh Kaul. Either of them will be the next US Senator from WI.
Buddy’s 2028 Democratic opponent will be Jeff Jackson.
