2009 Ohio
Election Results
Three of five Progressive Majority candidates were victorious in Ohio. A new wave of young, progressive candidates is evident: Greg Holcomb (26) and Marcus Madison (22) were elected to city council positions in Lorain and Elyria. These dynamic candidates are demonstrating the political appeal and growing power that our next generation of progressive leaders are bringing to key swing districts in Ohio.
