OH-GOV: Ohio Republican Vivek Ramaswamy holds big cash lead over Democrat Amy Acton after $25 million loan [View all]
Democratic candidate for governor Amy Acton raised $5.2 million during the first quarter of this year, and since joining the race for governor, she’s cleared $10 million, according to recently released campaign finance reports.
It’s an historic sum for the physician who led Ohio’s health department during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her campaign noted no previous Democratic hopeful has raised so much at this point in the calendar.
That announcement, which revised a previous quarterly fundraising total of $4.8 million, came after Republican Vivek Ramaswamy announced bringing in roughly $5 million from donors.
Despite that showing, however, money is likely a race Acton can’t win.
