Ramaswamy to spend $4M airing attack ad using Acton’s estranged mother: Capitol Letter

GOP gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is spending $4 million on a TV ad campaign targeting Amy Acton. The controversial advertisement features Acton's estranged mother calling her a liar, a move Ramaswamy justifies by claiming Acton spread lies about him and his family. Acton, the Democratic nominee in Ohio, responded by describing the ad as despicable and exploitative, further noting that her mother is not well. The campaign move has sparked significant tension between the two candidates.
