Vivek Ramaswamy Faces Controversy Over Campaign Ad and Racial Prejudice in Ohio Race
Vivek Ramaswamy, an Indian-American Republican candidate for Ohio governor, faces controversy over a provocative campaign ad targeting his Democratic opponent Amy Acton, which has drawn criticism from within the Republican Party and concerns about its impact on midterm races. Former President Donald Trump defended Ramaswamy and the ad, calling the criticism unfair. Meanwhile, Ramaswamy's campaign also contends with scrutiny over anti-Indian and anti-Hindu prejudice amid a tight race in a traditionally Republican state.
