2020 UAPA Accomplishments

UAPA, with the help of our members and friends, provided a tremendous amount of support to our efforts to turn Franklin County and Ohio blue. Unfortunately, all our efforts didn't result in Ohio voting the way we would have wished, with the exception of Jennifer Brunner's victory in the Supreme Court race. In Franklin County, we had much better results with Gary Tyack becoming the new Franklin County Prosecutor and 10 of 10 judges winning their races. We also retained Allison Russo, Mary Lightbody and Beth Liston.  Thanks to everyone who bought a sign or t-shirt or bumper sticker
