Ohio Democrat gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton's campaign finance records show her committee paid over $1 million to FDM Connects LLC, a direct-mail fundraising firm also used by progressive candidates Abdul El-Sayed and Graham Platner.
FDM Connects' website features Acton alongside Tim Walz, Jon Ossoff, Adam Schiff, and Katie Hobbs. The firm is one of Acton's largest vendors.
Campaign records show Platner paid FDM Connects $626,988 across 12 disbursements from October 2025 to June 2026. His name has since been removed from the firm's client list on their website.
Acton has positioned herself as a moderate Democrat throughout her campaign. The shared vendor relationship raises questions about her campaign strategy and target voter base.
