Democrat Amy Acton Flips Ohio Governor's Race, Defeating Republican Vivek Ramaswamy
Read this in the Market Flux appDemocrat Amy Acton has won the Ohio gubernatorial election, defeating Republican Vivek Ramaswamy, according to a projection from Decision Desk HQ called in the early hours of November 4. The result marks a significant political shift in Ohio, a state that has not elected a Democrat as governor in roughly 20 years.
Acton, who served as Ohio's state health director during the Covid-19 pandemic, faced Ramaswamy, a businessman and former 2024 Republican presidential candidate who had secured the GOP nomination with former President Donald Trump's endorsement. The race drew national attention in its closing weeks after Ramaswamy's campaign ran a widely condemned attack ad featuring Acton's estranged mother, which sparked bipartisan backlash and was later revised to a shorter version before being pulled from Ohio airwaves entirely.
