Ohio House of Representatives
When Senator Patricia Clancy resigned her Senate seat to take a position within Hamilton County, Representative Bill Seitz was appointed to take her spot. Mecklenborg, along with fellow Republican Dick Hammersmith, were mentioned as potential successors to Seitz in the 30th House District. With the endorsement of the Hamilton County Republican Party, Mecklenborg soon emerged as the favorite, and soon after he won the appointment. He officially took his seat on October 9, 2007.
In the 2008 primary, Mecklenborg was again up against Hammersmith, but this time on the ballot. The race looked to be competitive, but in the end Mecklenborg was able to retain his seat easily, winning by almost 4,000 votes. In the general election, Mecklenborg faced Democrat Bob Klug, but won by almost 29,000 votes.
Mecklenborg easily won reelection in 2010 against Democrat Richard Luken, winning by about 28,000 votes.
