Ohio's 11th congressional district

Ohio's 11th congressional district (also known as "Ohio 11") encompasses portions of Cuyahoga County in the Northeast part of the state—including all of Cleveland. It has been represented by Democrat Shontel Brown since 2021.

Ohio has had at least 11 congressional districts since the 1820 census. The district's current general location dates from the 1990 census, when most of the old 21st District was combined with portions of the old 20th District to form the new 11th District centered around Cleveland. Parts of Akron were added to the district when the congressional map was redrawn after the 2010 census, when Ohio lost two seats in the House of Representatives. The district has a Cook Partisan Voting Index of D+28; it is the most Democratic district in Ohio.

It was one of several districts challenged in a 2018 lawsuit seeking to overturn Ohio's congressional map on the basis of unconstitutional gerrymandering. The lawsuit described the 11th District at the time as "a detached shoulder blade with a robotic arm" extending southward from Cleveland to grab its share of Akron. The current district, redistricted again following the 2020 Census and a variety of related constitutional and legislative initiatives and proposals, is a more compact district entirely in Cuyahoga County, including all of Cleveland. Any portion of the county that is not in the 11th is in the 7th.

Following Marcia L. Fudge's resignation on March 10, 2021, a special election was held, with a primary on August 3 and the general election on November 2, as mandated by Ohio law. Shontel Brown won the election, and was sworn in on November 4.
