[edit] 2006 Election

On August 13, 2006, Democratic candidate Stephanie Studebaker -- who was the party's nominee to run against the incumbent Republican -- was arrested, alongside her husband, on charges of domestic violence. Two days later, she withdrew from the race, leaving the Ohio Democratic Party without a candidate in the district. A Special primary election to select a new democratic candidate was held on 15 September 2006. [1] Richard Chema won that election, but lost to Republican Mike Turner in the general election.
