Republican gubernatorial nominee Vivek Ramaswamy faced widespread condemnation for releasing a TV advertisement featuring the mother of Democratic candidate Dr. Amy Acton, accusing her of lying about her childhood. The ad, which cost Ramaswamy's campaign $4 million, was criticized by both Democrats and Republicans, including Ohio Governor Mike DeWine and former Governor John Kasich. Polls show that the ad has driven voters towards Acton instead of Ramaswamy, with one poll indicating an 8-point lead for Acton. The ad was eventually pulled from airwaves following the backlash.
