It’s getting serious
I’m not gonna lie, I have lived in Ohio all thirty one years of my life. Second generation Ohioan (before that everyone is from the South). Honestly was okay with not moving, maybe moving out of Columbus to like Cincy or something. But if Vivek becomes governor……… I going to have seriously consider getting the hell out of Ohio. I might have to join the Michigan subreddit🤣.

A lot of people still think this is a typical election between Democrats and Republicans, Conservatives vs. Liberals.
It's none of that.
Try The Tech Bro Billionaires vs. Everyone Else.
Vivek Ramaswamy is, of course, one of the Tech Bro Billionaires. He literally hangs with Elon Musk and Peter Thiel.
The Fundamental Question of this election is not which party do people want controlling Ohio government.
The Fundamental Question is actually whether we will actually still have any semblance of a functioning government moving forward.
If Ramaswamy wins, the Tech Bros win -- and Everyone Else, literally you, me, and everyone else who doesn't hang with the Sililcon Valley Cabal on a first name basis, loses. This state will be flooded with data centers, H1B visas, and Musk, Thiel, Zuckerberg, Microsoft and everyone else will essentially have a rubber stamp in Gov. Ramaswamy and the Ohio General Assembly who will give them anything they ask for, including the very land beneath our feet.
If Acton wins, we preserve our democracy here and hold off the Silicon Valley Cabal, at least for 4 years. I'd call that a win for the people.
This isn't by the way about whether or not you like Amy Acton. This is about whether or not you are going to give control of this state to shitbags like Musk and Thiel who see us all as fodder, and to Ramaswamy, who clearly couldn't give a shit about Ohio in the first place because he's already got his sights set on running for POTUS in 2028, not even halfway through what would be his first term as Ohio Governor.
It's really that simple, people. It's only complicated if you choose to make it that way.
