I have a dumb question

Representative Paul Gilmore (R), here in Ohio was found dead in his Washington apartment yesterday. How does Ohio go about filling his position? Does the position get filled for now or will there be a special election or something? I really don't know, that's why I'm asking.

Thanks in advance for your help.
