States Win for Krista Allison (OH HD 49)

Krista Allison is a lifelong educator and Stark County native running for the Ohio House of Representatives in District 49. A graduate of Baldwin Wallace University and Case Western Reserve University School of Law, Krista spent a decade in Columbus serving Ohio families, including as an executive director at the Ohio Department of Education, where she worked closely with legislators and the governor to advocate for public education and policies that support children, families, and communities. She returned to Stark County to lead the Stark County CARE Team, supporting at-risk youth, and later directed the Office of Student, Family, and Community Support for Canton City Schools.


Alongside her husband of 27 years, Krista has built a life grounded in faith, family, and service, and a commitment to making her community stronger for the next generation. She is running for House District 49 because she believes real leadership means showing up, taking responsibility, and doing the hard work on behalf of the people you serve. She is ready to bring that same commitment to Columbus to fight for the families of Canton, Jackson, and Plain Township and ensure every community has a champion at the statehouse.


WHY THIS RACE

Krista Allison spent a decade in Columbus fighting for Ohio’s kids and families, and now she’s running to go back with a vote on the House floor. A lifelong Stark County educator with deep roots in Canton, she has real experience navigating the statehouse through her time working for the Ohio Department of Education. HD-49 is exactly the kind of district Democrats need to flip as part of their six-seat path to breaking the Republican supermajority in the Ohio House. Krista has the credentials, community ties, and the insider knowledge to win this seat and hit the ground running.


WHY OHIO IS IMPORTANT

In 2026, Ohio has a real possibility of putting a Democrat in the governor’s mansion with an open gubernatorial race. But a Democratic governor means nothing as long as Republicans hold their supermajority in the Ohio House, giving them unchecked power to override any governor’s veto. By flipping just six seats, Democrats could break the Republican supermajority in the House and enable a Democratic governor to successfully block extreme legislation on reproductive rights, public education, and economic fairness.
