Democrat Brian Poindexter has won the election for Ohio's 7th Congressional District, defeating Republican incumbent Max Miller. The race gained national attention due to domestic abuse allegations against Miller, which he denies. Poindexter, a union ironworker and member of the Brook Park City Council, focused his campaign on working-class voters. The Associated Press declared Poindexter the winner shortly before 1:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday. Miller, who has served in the House since 2023, faced calls to resign from his former father-in-law, Republican Sen. Bernie Moreno, due to the allegations. The House Ethics Committee is investigating Miller for domestic violence and drug use allegations.
