Ohio's 2nd congressional district is a district in southern Ohio. It is currently represented by Brad Wenstrup.

The district stretches along the Ohio River from the Hamilton County suburbs of Cincinnati east to Scioto County. It includes all of Adams, Brown, Pike, Clermont, and Highland counties, as well as parts of Hamilton, Scioto, and Ross counties.

The following chart shows historic election results. Bold type indicates victor. Italic type indicates incumbent.

The district has not elected a Democrat since Tom Luken won a 1974 special election.

On August 2, 2005, elections were held to choose a United States Representative to replace Rob Portman, who resigned his seat on April 29, 2005, to become United States Trade Representative. Republican Jean Schmidt candidate defeated Democrat Paul Hackett in a surprisingly close election.
