What Congressional district do I live in?
After the 2020 Census, states redrew their Congressional maps for this year's election.
To find your Congressional district on the new map being used in the November election, click here and search by your ZIP code.
In Ohio, though maps are being disputed in court, a federal court ordered the state to proceed with a map that has been declared unconstitutional by Ohio's Supreme Court.
