Massive spending gap in Ohio governor race: Ramaswamy drops $9M on ads, Acton spends just $100K
Vivek Ramaswamy and his super PAC spent $9 million on ads during a six-week period in the Ohio governor race, while Democratic candidate Amy Acton spent $100,000. Ramaswamy's campaign raised $50 million, partly self-funded, with contributions from billionaires including Elon Musk and Jeff Yass. Acton raised $18.5 million, calling her opponent's spending approach ineffective.
