A bit more context: Ryan was re-elected with 57.2% of the vote in 2024. He's up for re-election again this year — he's running in the Democratic primary against no serious challenge, with Sharanjit Thind running on the Republican side, with the primary held June 23, 2026 and the general election set for November 3, 2026.
