Primary Election Endorsements!

Meet Some Amazing Women Running for Office in Ohio.

We are thrilled to share with you our Class of 2020 Matriots-endorsed candidates for the upcoming primary election on March 17, 2020.

Our endorsement and research committees have been hard at work for the last month, interviewing and researching women running for office in competitive primary elections across the state. Below you will find a qualified and captivating group of 15 candidates running for Ohio House of Representatives, Ohio Senate, County Council, County Commissioner, and Sheriff. These women are well poised to promote an Ohio that is both equitable and economically healthy.

Read more about the women and their campaigns at the below links. Please join us in supporting, encouraging, and, most importantly, voting for these women in March! 

Thank you for joining and supporting our vision for a better Ohio.

Onward,

Sally Crane Cox,
