Fox's first appearance: Ohio Sen. Niraj Antani wants to hit both Democrats and Republicans with a six-figure ad buy and “bring some heat” to the 2024 legislative session.
A fiery campaign ad on Tuesday, first shared on Fox News Digital, shows Mr. Antani holding a flamethrower as he makes his case to voters in Ohio's 2nd Congressional District.
