Derek Merrin

REP. Candidate for U.S. House, District 9, Ohio, on the November 3, 2026 ballot.

Listed by the FEC candidate master file (cn26): every candidate who filed for 2026, not the state's ballot (the FEC bulk file as downloaded 2026-10-09); FEC candidate H4OH09169. Office, district and party are as the list gives them; the record adds no judgment.

The state's official candidate list could not be read, so this entry comes from the Federal Election Commission's file of every candidate who filed for 2026; it says who filed, not who is on the November ballot.

Who is on the ballot comes from the state's own candidate list and the FEC's candidate file; what a candidate said comes from their own site, releases, transcripts and video first and from news second; a campaign's claim about a vote is checked against the roll call as recorded.
