俄亥俄州长德温称不支持削弱下任州长权力，阿克顿启动过渡
俄亥俄州州长迈克·德温11月5日表示，他不会支持共和党控制的州议会在艾米·阿克顿明年1月上任前削弱州长权力的企图。德温当天在俄亥俄州商会主办的选后会议上对记者说，他认为任何州长都不会批准大幅改变州长权力的举措，这样做并不妥当。阿克顿11月3日击败共和党人维韦克·拉马斯瓦米，成为20年来首位当选俄亥俄州州长的民主党人，外界关注共和党是否会在12月跛脚鸭会期削弱行政部门权力—共和党在新冠疫情期间曾对德温采取过类似做法。预计明年1月接任参议院议长的共和党人比尔·赖内克表示，参议院共和党人尚未就限制州长权力进行集体讨论，他已致电阿克顿表示祝贺。德温还透露，他与夫人弗兰·德温11月4日在州长官邸会见了阿克顿夫妇，并表示愿向新政府提供协助。阿克顿11月5日正式启动过渡工作，任命曾任前州长特德·斯特里克兰幕僚长的约翰·黑斯利负责过渡。

Ohio Governor DeWine Says He Won't Back Weakening the Next Governor's Powers as Acton Launches Transition
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine said on November 5 that he would not support any attempt by the Republican-controlled legislature to weaken the governor's powers before Amy Acton takes office in January. Speaking to reporters at a post-election conference hosted by the Ohio Chamber of Commerce, DeWine said he did not believe any governor would approve sweeping changes to the office's powers and that doing so would be inappropriate. Acton defeated Republican Vivek Ramaswamy on November 3 to become the first Democrat elected Ohio governor in 20 years, and attention has turned to whether Republicans might curb executive power during December's lame-duck session, as they did to DeWine during the COVID-19 pandemic. Republican Bill Reineke, expected to become Senate president in January, said Senate Republicans have not collectively discussed limiting the governor's powers and that he has called Acton to congratulate her. DeWine also said he and his wife, Fran DeWine, met with the Actons at the governor's residence on November 4 and offered the incoming administration his assistance. Acton formally launched her transition on November 5, appointing John Haseley, a former chief of staff to Governor Ted Strickland, to lead it.
