The Delaware County Democratic Party of Ohio is a rising star.


Delaware County was one of only three Ohio counties in which Democrats captured a greater vote share in 2024 than in 2020.


We have a lot of work to do in 2026. You can support our efforts by attending this event, making a donation, or both!


Speakers will be David Pepper, candidate for Ohio Lieutenant Governor and Meredith Lawson Rowe, incumbent Ohio House Representative of District 5. We will also feature our own local candidates: Josh Kolasinski for US House District 4, Jerrad Christian for US House District 12, Scott Charland for Ohio Senate District 19, Shelby Kimball for Ohio House District 60, Vince McGrail for Ohio House District 62, and Ryan Grissinger for Delaware County Commissioner.


Sweet and savory hors d'œuvres and a cash bar with beer and wine will be provided. Dress will be business casual.
