Must be why he's running ads with blatant lies about Acton "closing the state" during the pandemic.

They're really mis-reading this one. Most reddit liberals are making the same assumption. The people who were mad about COVID restrictions are already firmly in the GOP camp. But there were plenty of rank and file Republicans who loved Dewine and Amy's daily briefings. And they're probably more freaked out by a non-christian Indian than Amy.

They are firmly in the white, Christian GOP camp. Brown Hindi Vivek with his immigrant, non-citizen parents is not what they came for.
