Warren G. Harding was elected Senator from Ohio in 1914, and in 1920, near the end of his term, he was elected President of the US.

Harding's election was the first in Ohio following the 17th Amendment -- making senators elected by popular vote. Before that time, the state legislatures had selected the senators from almost all states.
