Brigid Kelly
State Representative
“I am Ohio State Representative Brigid Kelly, and I am proud to endorse Rachel Baker for State Representative in District 27. Rachel is who we need to fight extremism and build a better Ohio for everyone. Her commitment to access to healthcare, her dedication to women and children, and her tireless advocacy are what we need in the State House.
Rachel will flip District 27 blue and fight for us in Columbus every day”
Meeka Owens
Councilwoman
“I proudly endorse Rachel Baker for Ohio Statehouse District 27. There is nothing more important than community, and standing with one another. Like Rachel, I believe it takes a village to help empower our communities, and I know she will represent District 27 well at the statehouse.”
Denise Driehaus
County Commissioner
“I am County Commissioner Denise Driehaus and I am proud to back Rachel Baker in the 27th district State Representative primary! As the former State representative, and a current County Commissioner, I understand how important it is to know and represent your community. That’s why I support Rachel in her race for the Statehouse. I have seen her continued commitment and service to her community over the years.
I know that Rachel will continue to serve our community in Hamilton County while doing what’s best for all of us in Columbus!"
Pavan Parikh
Clerk of Courts
"I am proud to endorse Rachel Baker for State Representative. As a District 27 parent and the former top democratic lawyer at the Ohio Senate, I know what it takes to fight for our families in Columbus. Rachel is a supremely qualified and dedicated community advocate who will fight for our values every day."
Jessica Miranda
State Representative
“I am State Representative Jessica Miranda, and I’m proud to endorse my friend, Rachel Baker, for State Representative in District 27. In 2018 I flipped the 28th district from a red seat to a blue seat by 56 votes, so I know what it takes to flip a district. As a single mom, a nurse, and an advocate for those without a voice, Rachel has more than what it takes to flip the 27th district blue in 2022. Women get it done.
From one mom to another, I am happy to support my friend, Rachel Baker!”
Charmaine McGuffey
Hamilton County Sheriff
“I proudly support Rachel Baker for State Representative. Rachel understands the importance of safe communities and she will work hard every day on behalf of the families she serves. We need more leaders like Rachel in Columbus, leaders who listen and who are willing to fight for their community. Rachel is the person to do that.”
Christine Fisher
Former Democratic Candidate for District 27
“As a Mt. Lookout community member and former candidate for the 27th district, I am proud to endorse my friend Rachel Baker. Rachel knows what it means to care about your community at all times and has dedicated her career to helping children & families. With her deep roots and connections within the district, she is the candidate who can flip this seat in November.”
Jaime Castle
