After winning Ohio’s 11th congressional district seat in a special election earlier this month, Rep. Shontel Brown got right to work.

Shontel Brown was elected Ohio’s newest member of Congress on Tuesday, claiming a victory that had been all but assured in this heavily Democratic district since she defeated Nina Turner in an August special primary.

With 100 percent of precincts reporting, unofficial results showed Brown earned just over 50 percent of the vote. Her closest competitor, Nina Turner, had 44.5 percent. Eleven other candidates including former Cleveland City Councilman Jeff Johnson split the remaining Democratic votes.

The special primary election to fill the vacant seat for Ohio’s 11th Congressional District, in Northeast Ohio, is Aug. 3. The district is reliably Democratic, the seat held for years by Marcia Fudge, and there are 13 candidates on the Democratic ballot. But the attention, energy and campaign contributions have coalesced around just two: former state Sen. Nina Turner (OH-25) and Cuyahoga County councilmember and county Democratic Party leader Shontel Brown.

The race to fill the vacant seat for Ohio’s 11th Congressional District will hinge on next Tuesday’s Democratic primary. The district is reliably Democratic; state lawmakers gerrymandered it to be that way and it was held for years by Marcia Fudge, now the secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Thirteen candidates are on the ballot, but the two getting the most buzz are former state Sen. Nina Turner (OH-25) and Cuyahoga County Councilwoman Shontel Brown, chair of the county Democratic Party.
