  "account": "Democratic congresswoman Marcy Kaptur secured her re-election to the U.S. House of Representatives from Ohio's 9th Congressional District on Wednesday. She defeated her Republican opponent, Derek Merrin. Kaptur has faced multiple attempts to unseat her throughout her 22-year tenure. However, her victory will see her become the longest serving woman in the House. Her term will commence in January, marking her 23rd year in office. Merrin, a real estate investor and former four-term state representative, had sought to reclaim his seat after narrowly losing two years ago. The Associated Press officially declared Kaptur the victor at 2:53 a.m. EST.",
