What to know about the Ohio 1st District U.S. House election
Local Democrats and Republicans will vote today for their candidates in Ohio's 1st District, a closely-watched seat currently held by Cincinnati Democratic Rep. Greg Landsman.
The district now includes Clinton County, Warren County and parts of Hamilton County.
Damon Lynch IV, son and grandson of two civil rights activists and pastors in Cincinnati, is challenging Landsman in the Democratic primary.
There are three Republican candidates in the primary: former CIA officer Eric Conroy, former Turning Point USA employee Holly Adams and nonprofit founder Rosemary Oglesby-Henry. President Donald Trump endorsed Conroy.
Dr. Steven Erbeck, a Republican candidate from Madeira, dropped out of the race on April 20.
Landsman won reelection in 2024, defeating Republican Orlando Sonza with 56% of the vote. Ohio lawmakers redrew the congressional districts in October 2025, resulting in a district that now leans slightly Republican, according to composite data from Dave's Redistricting.
