Greg Landsman is seeking his third term as the representative for this district that has been “redistricted” to favor Republicans. The district now has an R+1 rating, and the redistricting changed its character from a Harris + 6 to a Harris -2.5 based on 2024 presidential voting. He will be opposed in a May 5 primary by small business owner and Navy veteran Lindsey Ferreira.

Landsman supports: lowering prescription drug prices; extending the Child Tax Credit; raising the minimum wage; strengthening labor laws; environmental protections; reproductive rights; and making more resources available for public safety. Landsman has been a member of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. He has brought home funding for projects that help Southwestern Ohio, including getting $11.5M for low and no emission buses. He wants to limit how AI data centers will affect the electricity prices for others.

Ferreira supports: sustainable agriculture; lower taxes and better access to loans for small farmers; better education and raising teacher salaries; a public option for the Affordable Care Act; raising the Social Security payment limit from $170K to $500K; reproductive rights; smarter border security and legal pathways to citizenship;  Ferriera is accusing Landsman of being a corporate Democrat and takes issue with him on not being critical enough of Israel concerning Gaza.

Endorsements:

Landsman:  Democratic Majority For Israel, AIPAC, Joint Action Committee for Political Affairs.

Ferreira: information not available

The Opposition:  There are 3 GOP candidates with substantial funding at this time. Eric Conway is a former CIA officer with $603K, Steven Erbeck is a dentist with $558K, and Rosemary Oglesby-Henry is a nonprofit CEO with $43K. A Libertarian candidate may take some votes away from the ultimate GOP nominee.

The Odds: The November 2026 is rated a toss-up. Landsman is a prohibitive favorite in the May 5 Democratic primary with $1.8M, while Ferreira did not list her funding.
