Key Facts:
- The Associated Press first reported plans for Kasich’s role at the convention.
- Kasich has been a mainstay in the Republican Party for decades, rising from an Ohio state senator in the 1970s to winning the state’s governorship on a Tea Party wave in the 2010 election.
- He won reelection by over 30% in 2014, setting the stage for his 2016 presidential run, in which he staked out a moderate beachhead strongly opposed to Trump’s divisive rhetoric.
