Endorses Santucci
The race
One state House seat is at stake in Ohio's House District 64, for a two-year term. The incumbent, Nick Santucci (Republican), is on the general-election ballot. The district's 2024 presidential baseline was R+12.9 (Wikipedia results summary). The confirmed general-election roster, from the Ohio General Election Guide - November 3, 2026 (Governmental Policy Group / RH Resources, updated September 21, 2026), is: Nick Santucci (Republican).
Sole candidate named for this district in the guide; guide marks Santucci with * = incumbent. Wikipedia's District 64 general-election table likewise lists Santucci alone.
Santucci is the House majority whip (Ohio House). No Democratic nominee is on this ballot.
The candidates, claim by claim
Nick Santucci (R), incumbent. Nick Santucci is the Republican incumbent on the guide's general-election list.
Pros: A Republican with a service record voters can inspect; aligned with the values this publication exists to advance. Cons: No proven flaw meeting this publication's standard was located in the compiled record; where the nominee has not previously served in state office, the record is thin by definition — that is unproven, not a demerit. The flaw, plainly: None proven was located in the compiled record.
OUR CALL
We endorse Nick Santucci (R). No proven flaw was located in the Republican nominee's compiled record, and the nominee's service record is in the file above. No Democratic nominee is on this ballot.
