Democratic Association of Secretaries of State Congratulates Allison Russo, Ohio’s Next Secretary of State

WASHINGTON – Democratic Association of Secretaries of State (DASS) executive director Chelsey Wininger released the following statement congratulating Allison Russo on being declared the winner in her campaign for Secretary of State.

There are 26 secretary of state elections on the ballot in 2026. Of these, Democrats and Republicans each control 13. This marks the third seat Democrats have flipped tonight.

“Robert Sprague made it clear in his ads in May that it was more important for him to support Donald Trump than stand up for Ohio and the rule of law. Ohio voters rejected that vision tonight and are throwing their support behind Allison Russo, a true independent public servant who will put Ohio first, regardless of party politics. Congratulations to Allison Russo!”

The Democratic Association of Secretaries of State is the only organization solely dedicated to electing and protecting Democratic Secretaries of States. When you support DASS you’re helping to flip Secretary of State offices into Democratic hands and restore the right to vote.
