Republican primary
Former U.S. Representative Jim Renacci challenged DeWine in the primary

Incumbent Governor Mike DeWine faced backlash from Republicans due to having implemented strict COVID-19 restrictions, such as a statewide stay at home order and mask mandates.[2][3][4] Due to this, on April 30, 2021, farmer Joe Blystone became the first candidate to announce a primary challenge to DeWine. On June 9, former U.S. Representative Jim Renacci also announced a run, later being followed up by former state representative Ron Hood.[5][6][7] As a result, DeWine became the first incumbent Ohio governor to face a primary challenger since Jim Rhodes in 1978 and the first to have multiple challengers since Michael Disalle in 1962. Initial polling showed Renacci in the lead; however his lead soon evaporated, as DeWine attempted to appeal to conservatives angry with his COVID response by attacking President Joe Biden's policies and signing constitutional carry into law, allowing permitless carry of firearms.[8][9][10] Incumbent governors rarely ever lose their primaries. Ultimately, DeWine prevailed in the primary election on May 3; however, he only won with a plurality of the vote, which suggests that he could have lost had his opponents not split the vote.[11]
