July 2016Dear Fellow Ohioan:
Producing the Ohio Election Guide is a biennial tradition of The Ohio Manufacturers’ Association. The Guide is a highly anticipated resource around “Cap Square” and well beyond.
It is compiled to provide comprehensive information about our state and federal candidates. And it is compiled to give candidates insights about the economics and demographics of their districts so that they can make policy decisions that best represent their constituents.
Look for these features in the 2016 Guide:
•Updated economic profile for each district — There is fresh district economic data including the percent change from 2012 – 2015 in establishments, employment, and payroll data. This provides insight into how well the district is faring economically.
•Updated district demographics — Refreshed data reveal the fundamental makeup of the citizen base in the district.
•Political Index — The updated 2016 political index incorporates six recent major elections and represents the district’s relative Republican/Democrat voting strength. The 2014 index is also provided to discern political-leaning shifts in the district.
Soon, the data in this Guide will also be available online at http://www.ohiolegislativedistrictguide.com/.
Campaign politics aside, there continues to be no more pressing issue than the economic vitality of Ohio and the availability of good jobs for its citizens. The actions of our electedleadersandofficialscontributesogreatlytothesocial and economic environment in Ohio. We acknowledge their courage in undertaking this grave responsibility and we thank them for working to protect democracy. We offer our gratitudetothemenandwomenrunningforpublicofficethis fall.
Please acknowledge the advertising organizations that make this project possible. The Ohio Election Guide is funded solely through the support of these friends of good government.
Finally, make your unique American voice heard: vote in the November 8th elections!
Sincerely,
William E. (Bill) Sopko President William Sopko & Sons Co., Inc. Chairman, The Ohio Manufacturers’ Association

Political Index:Eachdistrictprofileincludesapoliticalindexnumberwhichrepresents the relative Republican/Democrat voting strength in the district. The Republican index is constructed from the performance of Republican candidates in selected recent elections in the district.
The political index used in the 2016 Ohio Election Guide was constructed from election results in these recent major elections, weighted equally:
•2010OhioGovernor’sElection•2010OhioAttorneyGeneral’sElection•2012PresidentialElection•2012U.S.SenateElection•2014OhioSecretaryofStateElection•2014OhioAttorneyGeneral’sElection
The political index used in the 2014 Ohio Election Guide was constructed from election results in these recent major elections, weighted equally:
•2008PresidentialElection•2010OhioGovernor’sElection•2010OhioAttorneyGeneral’sElection•2012PresidentialElection•2012U.S.SenateElection
As with any political index, this measure is simply an indicator of past performance. It alone does not predict the outcome of an election. Other factors that contribute to the outcomes of elections are the popularity and position of the candidates, fundraising capabilities of the candidates, and performance at the top of the ticket. The index is helpful, however, in determining the overall prospects for candidates of any political party.
District mapsThe maps used in OMA’s 2016 Ohio Election Guide were preparedspecificallyforthispublicationandarebasedonvarious publicly-available sources. Maps correspond to the Ohio congressional, senate and house districts based upon the 2010 U.S. census.

The state is divided into 12 appellate districts by the Ohio Constitution. The number of judges in each district depends on a variety of factors, including the court’s caseload and the size of the district. The number of judges in each district varies from four to 12. Members of the courts sit on three-judge panels and serve six-year terms.
Court of appeals judges are elected in even-numbered years on a nonpartisan ballot. Appellate judges must be attorneys with at least six years of experience in the practice of law and residents of their district.

452016 OHIO ELECTION GUIDE — 45
The Ohio Senate is comprised of 33 members who serve four-year terms. Legislative districts are determined on the basis of population. Every 10 years, following the federal census, the total population of the state is divided by 33 to arrive at the target population for each district. For the current General Assembly, based upon the 2010 census, there are within 5% of 349,591 residents per Senate district.
The terms of the senators are staggered so that approximately half the membership is elected every two years. The senators representing the even-numbered districts are elected in years evenly divisible by four. The senators from the odd-numbered districts are elected in the intervening even-numbered years. Under Ohio Constitution’s term limit provision, senators are limited to two four-year terms.
Sixteen Senate seats — the even-numbered districts — are being contested in November; all 33 Senate districts are included in the Ohio ElectionGuidesothatthemaps,demographicsandeconomicprofilesofall districts are available to study.
Going into the 2016 election, Republicans hold a 23–10 majority over Democrats; going into the 2014 election, Republicans also held a 23–10 majority over Democrats, which was the same margin that existed going into the 2012 election! Republicans have been the majority party since January 1985.

832016 OHIO ELECTION GUIDE — 83
The Ohio House of Representatives is comprised of 99 members who serve two-year terms. Under the Ohio Constitution’s term limit provision, House members are limited to four consecutive two-year terms. Every even-numbered year, all the seats are up for election.
Legislative districts are determined on the basis of population. Every 10 years, following the federal census, the total population of the state is divided by 99 to arrive at the target population for each district. For the current General Assembly, based upon the 2010 census, there are within 5% of 116,530 residents per House district.
State House districts are nested within state Senate districts, so that each Senate district is made up of three contiguous House districts.
Going into the 2016 election, Republicans hold a 65–34 majority over Democrats. Going into the 2014 election, House Republicans held a 60–39 majority over House Democrats. Going into the 2012 election, Republicans held a 59–40 majority. The Democrats last gained the House in 2008, overturning a Republican majority that dated to January–1995; however, Republicans regained their majority in the following election, 2010.

The methodology for these estimates combines several data sources. The primary source of the employment estimates was the Census’ Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) data. The LEHD combines unemployment data with data from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey, which provides estimates of both worker counts and worker demographics. For this project, LEHD estimates were supplemented with information from the Levin College of Urban Affairs’ Center for Economic Development (CED). CED edits and maintains a longitudinal database of the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) for the state of Ohio. The QCEW data are derived from the state’s unemployment insurance tax data and containestablishmentlevelemployment,payroll,andindustryclassification.Establishment counts, wages, and the percentage change of each of these data elements were added using the QCEW database. Methodological protocols were implemented in order to align both the LEHD and QCEW data series at a district and industry level. Data were assigned to a district based on geographic identifiers,i.e.,address,zipcode,community,andcounty.

Methodology Used to Produce Census American Community Survey (ACS) EstimatesFor U.S. Congressional and Ohio House and Senate Districts. June 2016
The 2010–2014 American Community Survey (ACS) provides demographic and socioeconomic estimates for U.S. Congressional and Ohio General Assembly districts. The ACS data provide the basic demographics of households, population, race, age, and gender and socioeconomic data such as income and educational attainment data.
ThedistrictdataareproducedfromtheACSsummaryfiles,withnewfieldsandpercentages calculated as needed. The data are then ranked in descending order by percentage, or by the median in the case of median household income and median housing value.
The 2010–2014 estimates for the districts are based on a relatively large sample and, though margins of error are available, they are not provided in the tables.
1 Census ACS 2010–2014 provides relatively recent estimates, but the sample size is much smaller than the long form 2000 SF3 sample. The 5 years of ACS data provide a sample that is only about one half the size of the 2000 SF3 sample; thusestimatesaresubjecttowiderconfidenceintervals.
