Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on September 27, 1977)

Happy Birthday, Josh Mandel! From your spirited days in the Ohio House of Representatives to boldly stepping into the Senate race back in 2012, you've always shown determination—even if victory sometimes played hard-to-get. Your unwavering commitment and resilience have certainly earned you a special place among Ohio's political legends.

Though that Senate seat eluded you then, your passion for public service continues to inspire many. Here's hoping this birthday brings laughter brighter than campaign lights and cake sweeter than bipartisan agreement—because let's face it: politics aside, everyone deserves at least one unanimous vote on their big day!
