Vivek's campaign is done and I'm glad

What Vivek did to Amy, using her abusive mother in a campaign ad, is horrible straight up. But it is also a good thing that he did this because it proved he would've been a horrible governor. Absolutely no morals in doing whatever it takes to win. This is who he is. He would've destroyed Ohio if he won, ruining the economy and destroying the land to fill it with data centers, and now Ohio finally has a chance to grow again.

I also genuinely can not believe he doubled down on the campaign ad. He could've salvaged his campaign if he just apologized and denounced it. Instead, he clarified that he was responsible for the ad and wouldn't apologize. Republicans genuinely will never apologize for their actions.

That being said, do not get complicit. Go vote for Amy regardless to ensure her victory

You should thank your lucky stars that Vivek is Indian and lots of typical Republican voters won't support him for exactly that reason. If he was white this thing would be foregone conclusion.

The republican PACs that are funding VR were also discovered to be funding some of the "third party" candidates who are their preferred flavor of vanilla with a straw to ensure those extra votes won't go to Acton when they realized how caramel was not the winning flavor, even with a straw.
