Ohio Reviews Complaints Over Ad Featuring Amy Acton’s Mother, With Dispositions Often Within 2 Months

Summary
Frank LaRose said Ohio’s secretary of state is reviewing complaints about a political ad targeting Dr. Amy Acton that features her mother, but he declined to discuss the active case.
LaRose said the review focuses on legal compliance rather than message content, including whether the ad carried a proper disclaimer and was paid for by a permissible source.
The Ohio Election Integrity Commission, a bipartisan body housed in his office, handles such complaints and typically issues a disposition within 1 to 2 months.
If investigators find a violation, LaRose said the usual outcome is a fine that is later published in regular case-disposition reports for transparency.
