Cincinnati's mayoral election is shaping up as incumbent Aftab Pureval faces GOP-backed newcomer Cory Bowman, the half-brother of Vice President Vance. Bowman, having garnered nearly 13% of votes in the primary, cites Vance as inspiration for his political journey. With a focus on local issues, including public safety and infrastructure, Bowman emphasizes his independence despite family ties and seeks to make a significant impact on the city. Pureval, running in a strong Democratic environment, had initially expected to be unopposed.
Bowman, 36, is inspired by his half-brother, Vice President Vance, but asserts his own political independence, aiming for change in Cincinnati rather than national replication.
'There was nobody that pushed me into it... I just thought this would be a great way to help impact the city in another realm as well,' Bowman said.
