Overview
- The billboard went live on July 14 in Times Square and will run for one week with the message “Worried About Zohran? Ohio Is Waiting For You.”
- Vivek Super PAC — Victors, not Victims funded the $50,000 campaign to bolster Ramaswamy’s 2026 gubernatorial bid in Ohio.
- Chief strategist Andy Surabian framed the ad as a contrast between Mamdani’s “job-killing socialist tyranny” and Ramaswamy’s promise of “freedom” and the “American dream.”
- Since Ramaswamy’s 2024 presidential campaign and his February entry into the Ohio governor’s race, the super PAC has raised $17 million.
- Ohio ranked only 20th as a relocation destination for New Yorkers in 2022 and Mamdani has not publicly responded to the billboard.
