Incumbent Steve Chabot (R) defeated Kate Schroder (D) and Kevin Kahn (L) in the general election for the 1st Congressional District of Ohio on November 3, 2020.
Chabot was elected in 2010 after he defeated then-incumbent Steve Driehaus (D), 52% to 46%. Chabot had previously represented the district from 1995 to 2009; Driehaus defeated him in 2008, 53% to 48%. In 2018, Chabot defeated challenger Aftab Pureval (D), receiving 51% to Pureval's 47%. This margin of victory marked a decrease from elections going back to 2010.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee included Schroder on its list of Red to Blue program candidates, who receive campaign support in districts the group is targeting to flip. The National Republican Congressional Committee placed Chabot in its Patriot Program, which provides support to incumbents in battleground districts.
The outcome of this race affected partisan control of the U.S. House of Representatives in the 117th Congress. All 435 seats in the House were up for election. At the time of the election, Democrats had a 232 to 198 majority over Republicans. The Libertarian Party had one seat. Four seats were vacant. Democrats defended 30 districts Donald Trump (R) won in 2016. Republicans defended five districts Hillary Clinton (D) won in 2016.

District analysis
- See also: The Cook Political Report's Partisan Voter Index
- See also: FiveThirtyEight's elasticity scores
The 2017 Cook Partisan Voter Index for this district was R+5, meaning that in the previous two presidential elections, this district's results were 5 percentage points more Republican than the national average. This made Ohio's 1st Congressional District the 196th most Republican nationally.[5]
FiveThirtyEight's September 2018 elasticity score for states and congressional districts measured "how sensitive it is to changes in the national political environment." This district's elasticity score was 1.00. This means that for every 1 point the national political mood moved toward a party, the district was expected to move 1.00 points toward that party.[6]
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.[7]
- 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.[8][9][10]

We owe our veterans a tremendous debt of gratitude, because it is through their dedication and sacrifices that America remains safe and free. There is not enough we can do to repay the brave men and women in our country’s armed forces for the sacrifices they have made. I am humbled to be their representative and advocate in Washington. Our priorities in Washington must reflect our dedication to supporting those who have served our country. That is why I am a strong supporter of legislation and funding efforts that ensure veterans have access to medical care, education, and financial services. And throughout my time in Congress, I have also supported numerous measures to give our veterans more choices, improve accountability at the VA, and cut down on its backlog. In keeping with his support for Veterans, Congressman Steve Chabot is a sponsor of the following: H.R. 499, the Service-Disabled Veterans Small Business Continuation Act (116th Congress) Congressman Steve Chabot also supported the following major pieces of legislation passed by the House: S. 2372, the VA MISSION Act (signed into law in the 115th Congress) H.R. 1381, the Burn Pit Registry Enhancement Act (116th Congress) Congressman Steve Chabot is also a co-sponsor of the following legislation: H.R. 203, the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act (116th Congress) H.R. 553, the Military Surviving Spouses Equity Act (116th Congress) H.R. 628, the WINGMAN Act (116th Congress) H.R. 1424, the Fallen Warrior Battlefield Cross Memorial Act (116th Congress) H.R. 1615, the VA-SBA Act (116th Congress)[12] |
