Incumbent Frank Mrvan (D) defeated Jennifer-Ruth Green (R) in the general election for Indiana's 1st Congressional District on November 8, 2022. William Powers (independent) ran as a write-in candidate.
Mrvan was elected to the 1st District in 2020, winning the open seat 57% to 40%. At the time of this election, a Democrat had represented the district since 1930.[1] According to The Cook Political Report and FiveThirtyEight, the district’s partisan lean did not change significantly after redistricting.[2][3] In the 2020 presidential election, President Joe Biden (D) received 53.6% of the 1st District’s vote to former President Donald Trump’s (R) 44.8%. According to data from Daily Kos, the redrawn 1st District voted for Biden 53.4% to 45.0%.[4]
The Times' Dan Carden wrote, "Northwest Indiana is poised to have its first competitive congressional election in decades."[5]
Mrvan said he was running for re-election "to continue to address the pandemic health crisis, make investments to grow the Northwest Indiana economy with good-paying jobs, and bridge the division gripping our nation." He said, "Throughout my career as an elected official, I have listened to all individuals and worked in a bipartisan fashion to bring people together to solve problems. I look forward to continuing to represent our collective interests in Washington, D.C., and bringing back federal resources to enhance the Northwest Indiana economy by supporting existing businesses and attracting new people and good-paying jobs to our region."[6] Mrvan previously served as township trustee for North Township, Indiana, for 15 years.[7]
Green served in the U.S. Air Force for 12 years, after which she joined the U.S. Air Force Reserve and founded a nonprofit STEM education organization.[8] In a campaign ad, Green said, "Our economy is shrinking, costs are surging, and crime is skyrocketing. And career politicians aren't getting the job done."[9] In another ad, she said, "I'm a proud conservative. And like you, I'm concerned about skyrocketing gas prices and inflation, liberal efforts to defund the police, and woke madness like indoctrinating our children with critical race theory. ... In Congress, I'll defend the Second Amendment, protect life, and advance President Trump's America First policies."[10]
Both the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) and the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) focused on this election. The DCCC designated Mrvan as a member of its 2022 Frontline Program, a program providing resources intended to help incumbents hold competitive seats.[11] The NRCC listed Indiana's First Congressional District as one of its target districts in 2022, and Green qualified for the highest tier of the NRCC's Young Guns program.[12][13]
The outcome of this race affected the partisan balance of the U.S. House of Representatives in the 118th Congress. All 435 House districts were up for election.
Republicans won a 222-213 majority in the U.S. House in 2022.

Polls

Polls are conducted with a variety of methodologies and have margins of error or credibility intervals.[14] The Pew Research Center wrote, "A margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points at the 95% confidence level means that if we fielded the same survey 100 times, we would expect the result to be within 3 percentage points of the true population value 95 of those times."[15] For tips on reading polls from FiveThirtyEight, click here.

Race ratings
- See also: Race rating definitions and methods
Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:
- Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
- Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
- Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[16]
- Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.
Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[17][18][19]

Post-filing deadline analysis
The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Indiana in 2022. Information below was calculated on March 8, 2022, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.
As of the 2022 candidate filing deadline, 50 candidates filed to run for Indiana's nine U.S. House districts, including 28 Republicans, 21 Democrats, and one Libertarian. That's 5.6 candidates per district, less than the 8.7 candidates per district in 2020 and 7.9 in 2018. This was the first candidate filing deadline under new district lines adopted following the state's decennial redistricting process. Indiana neither gained nor lost seats in the 2020 round of apportionment.
Five incumbents—all Republicans—did not draw any primary challengers. At least one Democrat and one Republican filed to run in all nine districts, meaning no seats would be guaranteed to any one party.
Of the nine districts, one—Indian's 9th—was left open, meaning no incumbent filed to run. The district's incumbent, Rep. Trey Hollingsworth (R), announced his retirement from public office. The one open district represents the lowest number since 2014 when there were no open districts. There were two open seats in 2020, 2018, and 2016.
Presidential elections
Partisan Voter Index
Heading into the 2022 elections, based on results from the 2020 and 2016 presidential elections, the Cook Partisan Voter Index for this district was D+3. This meant that in those two presidential elections, this district's results were 3 percentage points more Democratic than the national average. This made Indiana's 1st the 188th most Democratic district nationally.[27]
