Acton confronts Ramaswamy ad using estranged mother in Ohio governor race
The MS NOW segment is a sympathetic interview with Democratic Ohio gubernatorial nominee Dr. Amy Acton days after Republican nominee Vivek Ramaswamy's campaign released and committed $4 million to an ad featuring her estranged mother, Donna Arthur, calling Acton a 'liar' about her childhood of abuse, neglect, and homelessness. Acton describes the personal toll, notes overwhelming public support and deeper connections on the trail, and argues the ad exposes Ramaswamy's poor character. Host Jen highlights Trump's defense of the ad, a new Zeteo report on Republicans warning Ramaswamy against it, five living Ohio governors denouncing it, and universal state editorial board endorsements for Acton. Acton ties the controversy to broader voter exhaustion with hate and cost-of-living struggles, urging votes at actingforgovernor.com. The race remains competitive with polls showing Acton up 2-7 points.
