The 9th district is based in Northwest Ohio, including Toledo and the western Lake Erie coast. The incumbent was Democrat Marcy Kaptur, who was re-elected with 63.1% of the vote in 2020. She was running for re-election.

This district was included on the list of Democratic-held seats the National Republican Congressional Committee targeted in 2022. The seat was significantly changed due to redistricting, losing all of its territory in Lorain and Cuyahoga counties while picking up more territory in northwest Ohio. This turned the district from a safely Democratic seat to a competitive one.

During the campaign, the Associated Press reported that Majewski may have falsified his service record and lied about serving in Afghanistan.
