Dave Joyce the Ohio Representative to Congress has opposition from his own party in the coming primary election.
This is Niki Frenchko a former Trumbull County commissioner who lost a reelection bid in 2024.
I am seeking insights from people familiar with her political leanings and her time as a county commissioner.

Well, at least not from James A. Traficant Jr. stole the headlines on a regular basis. Redistricting has combined my district with Traficant's former district.
Ex-con Traficant to run for old Ohio House seat
I liked Traficant when he was in congress. He was a Democrat that was a constant pain in the establishment Democrats side.
She has a separate website to appeal to those of pruinet interests.
Paid for by Niki Frenchko for Congress
That said, unless the incumbent has done something henious, it is unlikely anyone is going to unseat him., especially with a campaign tactic like this.
Niki Frenchko, a former Trumbull County Commissioner and U.S. Army Reserve veteran, is running against incumbent U.S. Representative Dave Joyce in the Republican primary for Ohio’s 14th Congressional District on May 5, 2026.
Frenchko, a self-described "America First" candidate, is challenging Joyce from the right, criticizing him as insufficiently conservative and accusing him of being influenced by PAC donors despite President Trump’s endorsement.
Frenchko gained national attention for launching OnlyFrenchko.com, a campaign website parodying OnlyFans, in response to critics dubbing her "Naked Niki" over non-explicit beach photos she posted in support of body positivity. The site, which teases subscribers with lines like "You'll have to subscribe to see," is a paywalled fundraising tool that directs proceeds to her campaign and promises to "expose everything" about her platform—not risqué content. It highlights her stances on abolishing property taxes, defending the Second Amendment, securing the border, and releasing Epstein files.
Frenchko filed her candidacy in early 2026, forming the committee "Frenchko for Ohio."
She emphasizes being an outsider fighting Washington insiders and Joyce’s "America Last" record.
Despite Joyce’s financial advantage and Trump’s endorsement, Frenchko’s unconventional tactics have generated significant media buzz and grassroots attention. She's easy to look at for sure , as well:
Dave has been there for 13 years, but I have no idea if he has been good, of ih has has been just another RINO. If he is a EINO, in your opinion, then I would go with Niki Frenchko.
The article I linked to in my comments talks about the Fans only page she has to fund raise and generate interest in her campaign.
A novel approach.
I put Joyce down as a RINO.
He gets a 5 out of 100 on his Liberty Caucus score card. The House average is 34.
