General election 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.^[1]
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.^[2]^[3]^[4]

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Ohio in 2022. Information below was calculated on April 6, 2022, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

In 2022, 70 candidates filed to run for Ohio’s 15 U.S. House districts, including 39 Republicans, 29 Democrats, and two independents. That's 4.7 candidates per district, more than the 4.4 candidates per district in 2020 and fewer than the 5.5 in 2018.

This was the first candidate filing deadline under new district lines adopted as part of Ohio's decennial redistricting process. Ohio was apportioned 15 seats in the House of Representatives, one less than it received after the 2010 census. The Ohio Redistricting Commission approved a redrawn congressional map on March 2 in a 5-2 vote along party lines. On March 18, the Ohio Supreme Court ruled that it did not have jurisdiction to overturn the map as part of the legal challenge that overturned the initial congressional map.

Two incumbents announced their departures from the House. Rep. Bob Gibbs (R) originally filed for re-election, but announced on April 6 that he would instead retire, though his name would remain on the ballot. Rep. Tim Ryan (D) chose to run for election to the U.S. Senate instead of seeking re-election. In the race to replace Ryan, seven candidates filed to seek the Republican nomination with the winner facing state Rep. and former House minority leader Emilia Sykes (D), who drew no primary challengers.

In all, candidate filings created 19 contested U.S. House primaries—10 Republicans and nine Democratic. Six incumbents seeking re-election drew no primary challengers. At the time of the filing deadline, all 15 districts were set to be contested in the general election with at least one Democrat and Republican filing in each.
