In 2022, Ohio voters will pick a new U.S. Senator to replace Rob Portman who's retiring. Also on the ballot are six statewide executive positions including Governor and five seats on the state Board of Education. There are several state supreme court races, all 15 congressional seats, the entire Ohio House of Representatives and half the Ohio Senate up for grabs. And of course, there are also plenty of local races and issues.

Early voting is underway for Ohio's second primary of 2022. The races for Ohio House and Senate seats were pushed back from the normal May primary date because of disagreements over new district maps.
