Looking at the list, as of right now, there are Democratic candidates in every single congressional district in states where the filing deadline has passed.
Unfortunately, it looks like right now there isn't a Dem candidate in Ohio's 2nd district, and the filing deadline is today.
Hopefully somebody can step up there, or Ohio Dems get a write-in candidate for the primary; it would be nice to see every district contested for once.
Back when the Iraq war was dragging down Republicans in rural areas we came close to winning OH-2 both in the 2005 special and in 2006. Hasn't been competitive since though.
Adding what I've found for the insular areas and DC:
-AS: usually early September filing; no primaries; no runoffs (governor races only on presidential cycles have done late November runoffs, but don't think the congressional elections do)
Minnesota's state DFL (Democratic Party) convention is the weekend before filing closes.

-DC: 3/16 filing, 6/16 primaries
-GU: 5/1 filing (partisan races); 8/1 primaries (partisan races); 8/5 filing (nonpartisan races); 11/17 runoffs
-MP: 8/5 filing; no primaries; usually late November runoff
-PR: No federal or governor elections this cycle (think any local elections would have late March filing and early June primaries)
-VI: 5/19 filing; 8/1 primaries; 11/17 runoffs
Thank you. I hate when DC is left out. And glad for the others as well
