In the mid 1990s, Ingram was first elected to the Cincinnati Board of Education, and served on that board for more than twenty years, leaving to take the office of state representative.

Ohio House of Representatives

After losing the Democratic primary for the Ohio Senate in 2014 to Cecil Thomas, Ingram unexpectedly received another opportunity to take a seat in the Ohio General Assembly in 2016 when state Representative Christie Bryant decided not to seek re-election after only one term. In a four-way primary, Ingram won the Democratic nomination with nearly 52% of the vote, a majority.

Ingram easily won the general election against Republican Matthew Wahlert with almost 77% of the vote. She was sworn into her first term on January 3, 2017.
