Ohio venues are reported to be cancelling plans for campaign events involving Republican gubernatorial nominee Vivek Ramaswamy, as public backlash grows around a campaign advert.

Across the coverage, the dispute centers on an advertisement that includes Amy Acton’s estranged mother. The reports say criticism has intensified enough to affect venue decisions, including whether events proceed.

Outlets also highlight public reactions online. One report notes that people leave low ratings on Google in connection with the controversy, while another describes the cancellations as driven by worsening backlash as the campaign tour faces growing resistance.
