Democrat Marcy Kaptur holds hotly contested Ohio battleground district

POLITICO
November 20, 2024

Democratic Rep. Marcy Kaptur won reelection against Republican Derek Merrin in one of the most closely contested House races this year, the Associated Press projected.

Kaptur, the longest-serving woman in the House, represented a safe district for many years that became redder in recent redistricting, making it one of Republicans' top targets this cycle.

She and Merrin, an Ohio state representative, had sparred over immigration at the southern border as Merrin tried to hitch Kaptur to President Joe Biden's policies.
