In 2020, Koehler faced Cynthia Richards in his last campaign for State Representative (due to term-limits).[7] Koehler won the 2020 general election by 26% in a 63.1%-36.9% victory.[8]
Koehler won each of his general elections in 2014, 2016, 2018, and 2020 by margins of 22%, 22%, 19%, and 26% points respectively in a district that is considered a 50-50 district for Presidential Elections.
