Ohio's 11th congressional district special election, 2008 took place on November 18, 2008. Ohio's 11th congressional district was vacated following the death of Democratic Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs Jones, who died on August 20, 2008. The election was won by Democrat Marcia Fudge. Since more than one candidate from the Democratic Party filed to take part in the election, a primary was held on October 14.[1]
Fifteen Democratic candidates qualified for the primary election, fourteen of whom appeared on the ballot and one of which qualified as a write-in candidate. Four candidates withdrew, but their names still appeared on the ballot. Votes for such candidates were not counted.[2]
Only Marcia L. Fudge appeared on the ballot for the special election.[1]
