In an election in which Republicans dominated in Ohio, Democrats flipped two Ohio House seats, reducing the Republican supermajority — potentially helping to keep the state from moving further to the right. There were about ten tight races in the House, with Democrats leading in nine of them throughout Tuesday evening. But by the time the unofficial results came in, only two seats flipped.House Districts 10 and 41 were open seats previously held by Republicans, but Democrats got the wins.
Twenty-two Republicans and 32 Democrats voted for Stephens for speaker during the actual vote, while the majority of Republicans voted for Merrin. Stephens, still a conservative, is significantly more moderate than Merrin — he is also more moderate than Huffman.A bitter rivalry has existed between the two GOP factions. Huffman has not been shy about his desire to replace Stephens.
