COLUMBUS, Ohio — Democratic U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur won another term in the U.S. House on Wednesday, after defeating a Republican state lawmaker endorsed by President-elect Donald Trump.
The Associated Press had previously said the race was too early to call, despite Kaptur declaring victory just before 2 a.m. the morning after Election Day. AP called the race for Kaptur on Wednesday. Final results were slightly outside the 0.5% margin that would have triggered an automatic recount, with Libertarian candidate Tom Pruss scoring about 4% of the vote.
Merrin had been endorsed by Trump and his defeat marks Trump’s first loss in a state that went for the president-elect three times.
