About this race

In the upcoming election for Ohio's 1st Congressional District, the incumbent Democrat Greg Landsman is facing a challenge from Republican nominee Orlando Sonza. Greg Landsman, aged 47, is a seasoned politician currently serving as the U.S. Representative. He completed his undergraduate studies at Ohio University. On the other hand, Orlando Sonza, a West Point graduate, is the Executive Director of the Hamilton County Veterans Service Commission.

The United States House of Representatives currently consists of 212 Democrats, 220 Republicans, and 3 vacancies. The demographic composition of Ohio's 1st District is predominantly non-Hispanic White at 69%, followed by Black residents at 22%, and Asian residents making up 5% of the population. Hispanic residents account for 4% of the district's population.

The district has shown a tendency to favor Democrats in recent elections. In 2020, Joe Biden won the presidential race in this district by an 8.5% margin. The 2022 House election saw Landsman win by a margin of over 5%. This election is not expected to be competitive.
