Republican Representative Bob Latta secured his position in the U.S. House of Representatives for Ohio following the elections held on Tuesday. Latta has been serving the constituents of the Toledo-region 5th Congressional District since 2007, marking a lengthy tenure in office.

In this recent election, Latta faced off against Democrat Keith Mundy, who has a background in legal document research and delivery. Mundy had previously attempted to enter Congress in 2016 but was unsuccessful against Republican candidate Jim Renacci during that race.

The election results were announced at 9:00 p.m. EST, confirming Latta’s victory and ensuring his continued representation of his district in the House. As a longstanding figure in Ohio politics, Latta’s reelection reflects his established support among voters in the area.
