Democrat Jeffrey Sites has announced he will be running to represent Ohio's 4th Congressional District. He ran for the position last year, but it was ultimately won by Jim Jordan for an eighth term.

Last week, Congressman Jim Jordan and Democratic Candidate Shannon Freshour tackled the topic of Social Security after a question collected from a citizen of Ohio's 4th District asked the candidates about recent reports of Social Security being under review.
