Candidates in Ohio’s 9th Congressional District race have tailored their campaigns to the most pressing and pragmatic issue for US voters: the economy.

Democratic incumbent Rep. Marcy Kaptur and her Donald Trump-endorsed challenger, state Rep. Derek Merrin, have visited small businesses and voters around Ohio in efforts to secure the coveted tossup seat.

Kaptur has focused on causes such as boosting homeownership and lowering health care prices.

She has largely avoided taking stances on cultural topics Democrats often focus on, such as abortion access and gender issues.
