A republican candidate list for the upcoming election sits on the floor of a campaign event for JD Vance, US Republican Senate candidate for Ohio, in Mount Orab, Ohio, on October 22, 2022. At a pizzeria along a noisy Ohio highway, Matt Kruse and his family have come to hear J.D. Vance, a Republican Senate candidate who has seized on soaring inflation as the pillar of his campaign. Kruse, holding a daughter in his arms, is an eager listener, already angry about "runaway inflation." The message he wants the US midterm elections to send to Democrats is clear: "Stop spending money." (Photo by Megan JELINGER / AFP) (Photo by MEGAN JELINGER/AFP via Getty Images)
