Ohio House of Representatives


When Representative Thom Collier was term limited from the Statehouse in 2008, Ruhl ran for the open seat. A decisively Republican district, Ruhl initially faced Tom Whiston in the Republican Primary, and won with 53.71%. She defeated Democrat Duane Grassbaugh by 55.16% of the vote in an overwhelmingly Democratic year.
In 2010, Ruhl ran for a second term. Again Ruhl faced a primary challenge by Patrick Quinn, but again won with 64.59% of the vote. She went on to defeat Democrat John Ryerson with 72.26% of the vote.
