Vice President-elect JD Vance has served in the United States Senate for less than two years, but after President-elect Donald Trump's victory in Tuesday's election, Vance is about to get a promotion to president of the Senate -- and leave his post as one of Ohio's senators.

Just two years after winning his first run for political office, Ohio Sen. JD Vance is set to become vice president — ushering a new generation into power and offering a potential glimpse at the Republican Party’s future after President-elect Donald Trump’s second term ends.

Beverly Aikins, Vance's mom, returned to Facebook on Wednesday to celebrate her son's win. Aikins took a break from social media in July to protect her peace of mind after seeing "vitriol and hate" toward her son, including from critics in Vance's hometown of Middletown, where she still lives.
