Multiple people are injured after an armed man lunged at Democrat Ohio Gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton at a campaign event at the Canfield Fair near Youngstown.
“While attending the Canfield Fair, an armed individual lunged at Dr. Acton, injuring multiple people,” Acton’s campaign said.
“Dr. Acton and Eric are grateful for the swift and decisive action of law enforcement and are praying for the recovery of those injured. This kind of violence has no place in Ohio. Dr. Acton will always stand up to the chaos, hate and vitriol that pits us against one another,” Acton’s campaign said in a statement on Sunday.
Details about the attack are unclear. The identity of the armed man has not been released.
Acton’s GOP opponent Vivek Ramaswamy released a statement condemning the attack.
“Candidates should be able to meet with voters without having to worry about threats or violence. What happened today is completely unacceptable and has no place in politics, and we hope hope that no one was hurt,” said Connie Luck, Ramaswamy’s campaign communications director.
On Saturday, Amy Acton made an absolute fool of herself while chanting that Vivek Ramaswamy, a billionaire, cannot buy the state.
“You cannot buy this state! You cannot buy Ohiooooo! You can’t buy us. You can’t buy us!”
Acton desperately tried to get the room to repeat it.
“You can’t buy us! You can’t buy us in Ohio! That is the end of this.”
Acton channeled Kamala Harris and sounded drunk at Saturday’s campaign event.

Let’s find out who this nut job is. Guess who the MSM will blame?
likely a false flag to get attention.
MAGA!...............
Concocted to draw focus away from her refusal to debateno doubt.
Yep- remember the same thing that happened to Omar???
Immediate silence and not one more word about it. EVER.
Why she wasn’t investigated for this false flag, I will never understand.
“ likely a false flag to get attention.”
Way too early to say that.
There is way too much hatred out there now, this action is completely unacceptable . On both sides
Yep l’m betting it was a plant.
Here it is but there was nothing immediately afterwards. It just seemed to be something FAKE.
Really is beginning to seem like the loons all live in Ohio.
And, that is a shame. We have some of the best natural scenery in the world, many of the most accommodating folks in the world, and a whole shitload of the best food in America.
But, sadly, it seems we will be known for the nutcase idiots who grew up in their parents’ basements, sucking up Cheeze-Whiz and Doritos.
Name one such violent MAGA nut.
No it’s not both sides. That’s a George W Bush notion
Ohio has box wine?
AA also wants to give the whole state of ohio a hug.....
“Acton channeled Kamala Harris and sounded drunk at Saturday’s campaign event.”
LOL! Best line in the whole story! MAGA! Get these drunken Socialist Democrat Bishes OFF THE STAGE!
Campaign security should have put him down.
Ilhan Omar is untouchable. Just like Hillary Clinton. And Hunter Biden. And George Soros...
I agree
this without facts is suspicious
How many times can the reported say ‘armed’ without saying what he was armed with. Guessing not a gun, or they would have led with that. I might be wrong, but for some reason they don’t want to say, and no mention of shots being fired, so I’ll put my money on a blade at this point. Although it could be a nail clipper based on this report.
The answer is simple, according to Amy. Send in the clowns...uh, social workers.
