Jim Jordan, the House Judiciary Committee chairman, will be heading back to Washington for another two years.

The Associated Press called the race for Jordan around 8:45 p.m. Tuesday with around 52% of votes counted. Jordan's district includes Union County, the western half of Delaware County, and extends from Lima to Ashland.

As of 9:22 p.m. ET, the longtime Republican incumbent had 67% of the votes with about 80% of the votes in. Democratic challenger Tamie Wilson had around 32% of the votes.

Jordan, who has been in this office since 2007, helped start the right-wing House Freedom Caucus. He represents Ohio's 4th District and ran unopposed in the primary.

Republicans have a strong edge in the district north of Columbus. Wilson, a repeat challenger, got just 31% of votes in November 2022.
