Nina Turner, Candidate for Secretary of State, Announces Campaign Manager

Angelique Roche’, a former Obama campaign operative, to lead Democratic statewide campaign

Special to The Truth

State Senator Nina Turner (D-­Cleveland) last week announced the addition of Angélique Roché as manager of her Secretary of State campaign. The move comes as the Democratic campaign continues to gain momentum in the Buckeye State, said the candidate.

“I’m pleased to have a proven leader like Angélique join our team. She comes to Ohio with the right campaign and legislative background to build on our efforts to ensure Ohio’s elections are fair and open,” said Turner.

Before joining the Turner campaign, Roché served as campaign director for MomsRising.org, an online and on­the­ground multicultural organization of more than a million members and over 100 strategically aligned partner organizations. Roché also served as the Southeast Regional Field Director for Organizing for America in North Carolina during the 2012 Presidential campaign.

After the successful re­election of President Obama, Roché joined the 2013 Presidential Inaugural Committee as the associate director of Volunteer Operations overseeing the recruitment, management, training and coordination of over 3,600 volunteers.

In addition to several local and
statewide campaigns, Roché’s background includes a four­year stint in the office of Senator Mary Landrieu (D-­LA) in the U.S. Senate as well as work for the Federal Communications Commission, The Gallup Organization and the U.S. Army.

“We will win this campaign voter by voter and community by community. This campaign's vision for fair and open elections in Ohio is one shared by millions of voters around the state,” said Roché.

“Ohio should be the ‘gold standard’ for ballot access,” she added. “Additionally, the Secretary of State’s office is the gateway of incorporation for thousands of Ohio entrepreneurs. By working together, we stand ready to protect Ohio voters from recent efforts to deny access to the polls and strengthen Ohio’s business community.”

Angélique Roché is a member of the board of directors and faculty of the Women’s Campaign

School at Yale University. She obtained her B.A. from Southern University A & M College in Print Journalism, a Juris Doctorate from the Southern University Law Center and her Legal Letters Masters (LL.M) from The George Washington University Law School.
