Acton leads the Ohio governor race in most recent polls, including Suffolk University (50-41%), Marist (50-44%), and New York Times/Siena (49-45%) surveys conducted in late September and early October, reflecting voter concerns over economic conditions and the direction of state government ahead of the November 3 election. These trends have shaped trader consensus around her 68.5% implied probability, even as Ohio has favored Republicans in recent presidential contests. Ramaswamy maintains a significant fundraising advantage through personal contributions and holds Trump’s endorsement, factors that have kept his market share near 30.5% despite mixed polling results, including one early October survey showing him narrowly ahead. Early voting has begun, with the race viewed as competitive but tilted toward Acton in current aggregates.
