Dennis Kucinich Bids for The House Again

Dennis Kucinich, a former eight-term Ohio Democratic House member, former mayor of Cleveland and a presidential candidate in 2004 and 2008, filed this week to run as an independent House candidate for Ohio’s 7th Congressional District. He was a campaign manager for independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. until October. On the November ballot for that House seat are Rep. Max Miller (R) and Democratic challenger Matthew Diemer.

He’s expected to appear on the November general election ballot alongside incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Max Miller of Rocky River, a former Marine who took office in 2023, as well as the winner of the Democratic primary contest between entrepreneur Doug Bugie and small business owner Matthew Diemer.
