The midterm elections are just six weeks away and Republican U.S. Senate candidate from Ohio J.D. Vance is MIA.The 38-year-old Hillbilly Elegy author hasn’t done any public events in days and his campaign won’t tell anyone where he is.
On top of that, his fundraising operation is virtually nonexistent and, as of last quarter, his campaign was nearly $1 million in debt.
Eek.“J.D. is running a campaign where the faithful in the state, the county chairmen, the precinct executives, the executive committee and the Republican Party are saying, ‘where’s J.D.?'” conservative radio host Bill Cunningham tells CNN. “And they want him to do things.
People want to meet him. They want to. This is a new guy, new kid on the block.”Related: J.D.
