Submitted Biography: "I’m the oldest of four children from the western suburbs of Chicago, raised in a Jesuit Catholic household that focused on building Men & Woman for & with Others. In my service experiences, including advocating for farmworker’s rights, feeding the homeless, meeting immigrants in Central America & at the border, and playing basketball and writing poetry with juveniles in detention centers, I have met people who want the same things as anyone else: to be able to work hard to provide for themselves and their families. I’m running because I am tired of the people with answers being ignored by people with power. Partisan politics has stood in the way of our collective advancement. It is time for a voice – independent from the parties, independent from corporate PAC money, and united with their community – to represent not only this district, but the United States of America. After college, I lived at home to save up for a duplex. For a moment during the Covid pandemic, I was my family’s breadwinner. I may be young, but a pandemic, an economic crash in 2008 and the talk of another crisis looming is enough to age you quickly. I excel at finding patterns, and I will find the most efficient ways to solve the problems we face with as few tax dollars as possible. When we treat others how we expect to be treated, we create the society this American Dream was built upon. I’m looking forward to learning more about what you need, and in turn, earn your vote to represent you."

In office, my goal is to make Election Day a Federal Holiday and institute opt-out voter registration to make it as easy as possible for citizens to exercise their right to vote. These policies should have been passed long ago. We’ll accomplish them now.
Technology and the internet have transformed our world at a drastic pace. Mostly for the better, but also for the worst. A congress with the average representative being nearly 60 years old is not positioned to be as swift and effective as we need them to be. I am capable of addressing the roots of these emerging technologies. Technology requires decisive action for our collective advancement. It also enables transparency. I will do everything I can to make Congress as visible as possible so we can learn how deals are made before they reach the House floor. This is how we will find out who holds the office for the people and who is there for themselves.
Alan Rapoport (R)
I support the Secure the Border Act of 2023, which would end "catch and release" and prevent invasions by criminals and terrorists. I differ with Shontel Brown, who voted "no" on it.
I agree with Congressional Resolution 40, which condemned efforts to defund law enforcement agencies. I differ with Shontel Brown, who voted "no" on it.
Christopher Zelonish (Independent)
There are many issues I am truly passionate about such as social security. I don’t believe that our parents and grandparents who have worked all their lives should be struggling to make it day to day. Throughout time taxes have devastated social security along with taking the funds dedicated for social security and transferring them to the general fund. This must stop I along with many Americans have faith in the American dream where you work hard start a family live and prosper with them after you will be able to support your self with funds you all pay into. Sadly in todays society when you retire that’s when the struggle begins.
Regardless of whether you are republican or democrat I believe we are all Americans. The most amazing thing is we all live together with different views or religions and we are accepted with no fears of repercussions. America is true harmony. Just because I have the republican tag on me does not mean that I wouldn’t fight for every single American no matter your age race political affiliation or religion. We are all one in this society.

Each of these objectives boil down to more money in people’s pockets.
If you have a good paying job with upward mobility, why would you jeopardize it by committing crimes? Good paying jobs equates to safer communities. Safer, and now wealthier, communities lead to stronger property value. Stronger property values lead to larger property taxes, which are used to create better schools.
When people have someone willing to do what it takes to win for them in office, you don’t get leaders willing to sell out to companies like FirstEnergy, or ones who follow wherever the political winds are blowing. As someone who has never tolerated bullies, I won’t bend to those who offer me a sweet deal that sucker punches everyone else. I see working for the federal government as my way of standing up to the bullies who have seemingly taken over our country’s interests and priorities. I wish to reset our priority towards the people — the ones who select us to make the right call for us all.
I am prepared to let you inside Capitol Hill to show you how the sausage is made, and most importantly, show you who prevents or deters good ideas from working. There are so many bright and talented people in this country working to build a better tomorrow. If you allow me to do it, my job is to raise the voices and power of the builders, while wrangling in those who wish to harm our collective advancement for their own interests.

I recognize that I am striving for what others believe is impossible. However, my friends have noted in everything from ‘friendly competitions’ to tests of the mind, body and spirit, I possess an iron will. I fully intend to be the next OH-11 congressman.
We are at a critical juncture. In my personal experiences, when family, friends, and strangers are in need of something to hope for, I have provided. No matter where my journey leads, I live for a better way in a better world, where we all Live Free.

My race, my sexuality, my creed and my birth in this great nation have given me a lot of advantages, purely by luck. This luck provides me the responsibility to offer people the same privileges I have enjoyed.
Nonetheless, luck can only go so far. What I lack in finances, I make up for in my desire and ability to learn from others and apply their findings for a better world for all. I know I am not the smartest person in this District, but I am the one willing to put my hat in the ring for the job that must be done.
More independents will need to be in office, but first, in order for others to run, they need to see someone do it to know it’s possible. I am the oldest in my family. I am used to giving things a try, especially when it needs to be done. This race is no different.

Simultaneously, the rise of technologies, particularly AI, are beasts we have created. While they are very new phenomena, they have completely transformed our world, and continue to do so at a rapid pace.
In order to properly tackle both climate change and the meteoric rise in technology dependence, we must be communicative and collaborative to a point we have not yet reached as a human race. It will take our entire planet to stop global warming. Luckily enough, technology has given us the ability to communicate with the entire human race, at once. For the first time. Ever. AI might be the weapon we can utilize to correct our past climate mistakes and set us on a course to prosperity.
Strong leadership, alongside quick & adaptive policymaking, are essential for us to keep the scales of AI proliferation in our favor so that we can harness the technology, and not allow it to harness us.

Despite these challenges, we have strong people who maintain resilient communities with uncommonly strong bonds. These stretch across our district, providing a vibrant web of connections that make the greater Cleveland area an incredible place to live.
In many ways, Cleveland is the story of our nation: people working hard to supply for themselves, their families and communities – who have been sold bills of goods by ‘leaders’ who do not match the heart, soul and strength of the people they represent.
There are thousands of living examples of true leaders in this district. They get up everyday to fight for what they know is right, even without support they deserve. I aim to change that story – from working in spite of power, to unleashing power into the hearts and minds of the most dedicated civil servants. This will create the district we desire.

If we have good policy available, like concrete actions for our immigration system or Transparency for our Corporations or Accountability for our Social Media – we must move forward. Both parties this last year derailed good policy for political leverage. It’s a disgrace to the position they are assigned.
Most legislation is passed through omnibus bills, or “everything everywhere all at once” bills. These bills make compromise the currency of the land, which is great for lobbyists and individual agendas, but bad for the growth of our nation’s success.

Budget are at the top of my list.

One instance of the need for transparency, outside of our military spending, is California’s spending on homelessness. It has reached $24 Billion since around 2019, but apparently, the spending hasn’t been monitored. Homelessness is a crucial issue we must tackle, and California is a state willing to try policy that other states could then adopt. Now, however, no one knows what programs worked and which ones didn't because the funds were not tracked. Meanwhile, homelessness in California has increased.
Every American understands the importance of balancing their own budget. This essential skill is seemingly lost on our political leaders.
We have learned that giving the poor in our nation $3,000 - $3,600 can decrease our collective poverty by HALF in just two years. These are the types of solutions that should be celebrated and firmly instituted, because they do a massive amount of good for as little cost as possible!

- 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.[4]
- 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.[5][6][7]

Post-filing deadline analysis
The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Ohio in 2024. Information below was calculated on 2/12/2024, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.
Seventy candidates filed to run for Ohio's 15 U.S. House districts, including 28 Democrats and 42 Republicans. That was 4.7 candidates per district, the most since 2018.
In 2022, the first election after the number of Congressional districts in Ohio decreased from 16 to 15 following the 2020 census, 4.5 candidates ran. In 2020, when the state still had 16 Congressional districts, 4.2 candidates filed per district. In 2018, 5.1 candidates filed.
The total number of candidates who ran for the U.S. House in 2024 was also higher than any other year this decade besides 2018, when 82 candidates ran.
Two districts—the 2nd and the 6th—were open, meaning no incumbents filed to run. That was more than in 2022, when only one district was open, and 2020, when none were.
Rep. Bill Johnson (R), the incumbent in the 6th District, resigned on Jan. 21 to assume the presidency of Youngstown State University. A special election to fill Johnson’s seat took place place on June 11.
Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R), the incumbent in the 2nd district, retired from public office. Eleven candidates—one Democrat and 10 Republicans—ran to replace Wenstrup, the most candidates who ran for a district in 2024.
Fourteen primaries—six Democratic and eight Republican—were contested. That was the fewest contested primaries since 2016, when 10 were. Between 2014 and 2022, an average of 17 primaries were contested.
Three incumbents faced primary challengers, a decade-low. The three incumbents—Reps. Bob Latta (5th), Warren Davidson (8th), and David Joyce (14th)—were Republican.
Democratic and Republican candidates filed to run in all districts, meaning none were guaranteed to either party.
Partisan Voter Index
Heading into the 2024 elections, based on results from the 2020 and 2016 presidential elections, the Cook Partisan Voter Index for this district was D+28. This meant that in those two presidential elections, this district's results were 28 percentage points more Democratic than the national average. This made Ohio's 11th the 24th most Democratic district nationally.[8]
2020 presidential election results
