      Ohio House of Representatives


      After losing the Democratic primary for the Ohio Senate in 2014 to Cecil Thomas, Ingram unexpectedly received another opportunity to take a seat in the Ohio General Assembly in 2016 when state Representative Christie Bryant decided not to seek re-election after only one term. In a four-way primary, Ingram won the Democratic nomination with nearly 52% of the vote, a majority.
      Ingram easily won the general election against Republican Matthew Wahlert with almost 77% of the vote. She was sworn into her first term on January 3, 2017.
