The newly redrawn 1st Congressional District in Ohio will see Republican voters choose between three candidates in a race that has been endorsed by President Donald Trump. The district has been significantly altered by the Ohio General Assembly, which includes the city of Cincinnati but now includes the more Republican-leaning Warren and Clinton counties. The Republican primary pits former U.S. Air Force officer and CIA caseworker Eric Conroy of Cincinnati against career saleswoman Holly Adams and nonprofit owner Rosemary Oglesby-Henry of Cincinnati. Conroy believes that the endorsement of Trump will help unify the party ahead of a competitive general election. All three candidates highlighted affordability as their top priority if elected and sent to Washington, focusing on reducing overspending and balancing the federal budget. They also highlighted the impact of military action against Iran on affordability and gas prices.
