Joyce was challenged in the Republican primary by State Representative Matt Lynch. Joyce, who had been called "Ohio's most vulnerable House Republican", did not win a primary election for the seat in 2012 after incumbent Republican Steve LaTourette retired months after winning the primary unopposed, leading local party leaders to pick Joyce to replace him.http://atr.rollcall.com/local-lawmaker-eyes-primary-to-ohios-vulnerable-house-republican/ Local Lawmaker Eyes Primary to Ohio's Most Vulnerable House Republican December 12, 2012 February 9, 2013 The Plain Dealer Sabrina Eaton January 30, 2014 https://web.archive.org/web/20140130095224/http://atr.rollcall.com/local-lawmaker-eyes-primary-to-ohios-vulnerable-house-republican/ dead
