US Vice President JD Vance defended Republican Vivek Ramaswamy's recent attack ad against his Democratic opponent in the Ohio governor's race. He urged fellow Republicans to stop complaining and focus on winning the election. The ad features Amy Acton, the Democratic candidate's estranged mother, who disputes her daughter's account of a difficult childhood that included homelessness and sexual abuse at the hands of her stepfather.
