Ohio House of Representatives

In 2016, state Representative Terry Boose was unable to run for another term due to term-limits. A competitive seat on paper, both Democrats and Republicans made the seat a top target. On the Republican side, Stein was one of four to seek the GOP nomination, besting Kathryn Frombaugh and two others with 34% of the vote to take the nomination.[3]

Facing Democrat Tom Dunlap, a Huron County Commissioner, Stein won the general election 62% to 38%.[4] He was sworn in on January 3, 2017.[5]
