Context: The 1992 United States Senate election in Ohio was held on November 3, 1992.  Incumbent Democratic U.S. Senator John Glenn won re-election to a fourth term, coinciding with Bill Clinton's narrow win during the presidential election.  Glenn's voting percentage of 51% represented the worst performance of his four runs for the Senate, likely due to the presence of third-party candidate Martha Grevatt of the far-left Workers World Party.  As of 2016, this is the last time the Democrats have won the Class 3 Senate Seat from Ohio.

Bush and Independent businessman Ross Perot in the 1992 presidential election.  Four years later, in the 1996 election, he defeated Perot and Republican Bob Dole to win re-election.
