Marcy Kaptur keeps her seat, or if Republican U.S. Air Force veteran and nuclear energy executive J.R. Majewski prevails, a segment of the population in northwest Ohio will have a representative whose platform is drastically different from what they are accustomed to.<\/p>\n<p>Kaptur is 76 and is closely aligned with President Joe Biden. She has a lifetime rating of 11.85 by the American Conservative Union. Biden was given a 12.57 rating during his tenure in the U.S. Senate.<\/p>\n<p>She was first elected to the U.S. House in 1982 when President Ronald Reagan was midway through his first term.<\/p>\n<p>The 42-year-old Majewski was deployed to Afghanistan in Operation Enduring Freedom, built a career managing nuclear power plants, and gained national acclaim when he painted a Trump 2020 sign in the yard of his Port Clinton home near the Lake Erie shoreline.<\/p>\n<p>For a decade leading to the current election cycle, the 9th District covered 140 miles of Lake Erie\u2019s coastline, including the Democratic strongholds of Toledo in northwest Ohio and Cleveland in the state\u2019s northeast corner.<\/p>\n<p>Kaptur breezed to election victories, consistently securing more than 60 percent of the vote.<\/p>\n<p>Now, after the most recent redistricting process, the 9th\u00a0District includes Ohio\u2019s rural northwestern corner, which Kaptur has never represented. Voters there are more conservative. Cleveland is no longer in the district.<\/p>\n<p>With Biden\u2019s approval rating at 36 percent, and inflation at 9.1 percent, Republicans are confident that they will regain control of the House in November. The party needs a net gain of five seats to accomplish that goal.<\/p>\n<p>Political forecasters give Republicans a slight edge in winning the district.<\/p>\n<p>Kaptur was added to the Democratic Congressional Campaign<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Ohio\u2019s redrawn 9th\u00a0Congressional District, some residents will be in for a shock when the calendar turns to January 2023.
