Democrat Amy Acton is projected to flip the Ohio governor’s mansion, according to Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ), after a controversial ad from Republican rival Vivek Ramaswamy roiled the closing days of the race.

    That ad not only destroyed his chances at a win, it destroyed ever Republican race in Ohio, and even had an impact on races outside of Ohio.

    This was a Sociopathic Oligarch trying to buy a governorship, and he thought the voters were as depraved as he is. Instead, people all over America saw that ad, and it became the face of MAGA as a whole.

      I just keep remembering him sitting there like a wanker while Ann Coulter tells him to his face that she would never vote for him because he is “a Indian.”

      Smug fucker keeps being hated by his party while rushing to support the same fascism. I hope he keeps losing in life.

        To elaborate for anyone else, he had a bunch of sexual predators in his ads, but the one in question was his opponent’s mother who admonished her for everything in life.

        Oh, btw, his opponent was sexually assaulted by a parent and the mother in question enabled it. He doubled down over and over that it was just politics and ended up spending millions on that particular campaign, even after the rest of the world was like “wait, rape is bad, right?”.
