Ohio workers built this state. Amy Acton grew up in Youngstown. She knows the pride and the grit of Ohio's working families, because she comes from them. The issues unions fight for are the same ones every working family cares about. Amy Acton gets that.

Amy Acton is a doctor, not a politician. She grew up poor and spent thirty years in public health. Her priority as governor is lowering what your family pays. On prescription drugs, insurance premiums, medical debt.

Vivek Ramaswamy's first tax cut is on money made off stock. Not on overtime. Only 15,000 of the wealthiest Ohioans would benefit. The rest of us cover what it takes out of roads, schools, and safety.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
