Ohio's 10th congressional district is represented by Representative Dennis J. Kucinich (D). The district is based in the western part of Cleveland and surrounding suburbs in Cuyahoga County. Cook PVI rates this district as R+2.
Due to redistricting, this district's lines will change dramatically following the 2012 elections. The 10th district will move out of the Cleveland area to southwestern Ohio, and will contain the city of Dayton and its surrounding suburbs and exurbs. The territory within the current 10th district will be divided among several other northern Ohio districts, including the 9th district and the 11th district.

“This fair homestead has fallen to us, and how little have we done to improve it, how little have we cleared and hedged and ditched! We are too inclined to go hence to a “better land,” without lifting a finger, as our farmers are moving to the Ohio soil; but would it not be more heroic and faithful to till and redeem this New England soil of the world?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
