Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine calls on Vivek Ramaswamy to take down ad featuring opponent’s estranged mother

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine is calling on Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy to stop airing an ad that features the estranged mother of his Democratic opponent, Amy Acton. The ad, which was released last week, shows Amy Acton's estranged mother, who has been critical of Ramaswamy, speaking about her daughter's past actions.

Ramaswamy's campaign has defended the ad, saying it is a legitimate way to highlight Acton's past mistakes. However, DeWine has argued that the ad is a low blow and crosses a line.

DeWine has a history of criticizing Ramaswamy's campaign, and this latest move is seen as a way for him to try to gain an advantage in the election. Amy Acton has also spoken out against the ad, saying it is a personal attack and that Ramaswamy is trying to distract from his own policies.

Acton has been a vocal critic of Ramaswamy's stance on certain issues, and this ad is seen as a way for Ramaswamy to try to discredit her. The ad in question is a 30-second spot that features Amy Acton's estranged mother speaking about her daughter's past actions.

The mother, who has been estranged from Acton for several years, says that Acton has made mistakes in the past and that Ramaswamy is the right choice for Ohio. Ramaswamy's campaign has released several other ads in recent weeks that have targeted Acton and her family.

These ads have been criticized by some as being too negative and personal. However, Ramaswamy's campaign has argued that these ads are necessary to highlight Acton's past mistakes and to show that she is not fit to be president.

DeWine's call for Ramaswamy to stop airing the ad is seen as a way for him to try to gain an advantage in the election. DeWine has been critical of Ramaswamy's campaign, and this latest move is seen as a way for him to try to discredit Ramaswamy and gain support from voters.

The ad in question is set to air in several key battleground states, including Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. Ramaswamy's campaign has said that it will continue to air the ad, despite DeWine's call for it to be taken down.
