2020 Ohio House Of Representatives Election
The 2020 Ohio House of Representatives Election was held on November 3, 2020, with the primary election held on April 28, 2020. Ohio voters elected state representatives in the 99 Ohio House of Representatives districts. State representatives elected in 2020 will be eligible to serve a two-year term beginning January 2021 and ending December 2022. These elections will coincide with elections for U.S. President and the Ohio Senate. Democrats hoped they could break the Republican supermajority in the chamber given their strength in suburban districts in 2018 and the fallout of the Ohio nuclear bribery scandal. However, further Democratic gains failed to materialize and Republicans picked up four seats along the state's eastern border, further consolidating their control.

Results of testing for HIV genetic material were reported once at a scientific conference in Australia in 1999; however, the data has never been published in a peer-reviewed medical or scientific journal. Background Robert Rayford was born on February 3, 1953, in St. Louis, Missouri to Constance Rayford (September 12, 1931 – April 3, 2011) and Joseph Benny Bell (March 24, 1 ...
