Ohio Democratic Party Statement On Results of Ohio’s 6th Congressional District Race
June 13, 2024
Columbus, Ohio- Following the special election in Ohio’s 6th congressional district, Ohio Democratic Party Chair Elizabeth Walters released the following statement.
“We’re grateful to Michael Kripchak for running a campaign rooted in the belief that the people of Ohio’s 6th district deserve a representative who works for them, not just the wealthy and well connected. Michael ran a strong campaign that focused on the issues that matter most, showing up in communities across OH 6 that have been long overlooked. All while facing heaps of corporate cash and running in an illegally gerrymandered district. As he enters the general election, we know he’ll keep up the fight so voters in OH 6 get the representation they deserve.
While we shouldn’t draw too many lessons from a single election, this race makes it clear that it’s a mistake to completely write off Ohio.”
