Like it’s 2008 again: Ohio governor votes for John McCain instead of Trump

WASHINGTON (CNN) — Ohio Gov. John Kasich voted Monday for 2008 Republican nominee John McCain instead of for 2016 Republican nominee Donald Trump.

Kasich wrote in Sen. McCain’s name at the top of the ticket, Kasich spokesman Chris Schrimpf said, on his absentee ballot.

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., was the GOP presidential nominee in the 2008 race against Barack Obama.

Kasich ran against Trump for the Republican nomination, and has been a prominent holdout ever since dropping out of the race in May. He has long promised not to support Trump in November, but he had not previously said who he planned to support instead.
