Komives, a local organizer
and executive director of Equality Toledo, has been endorsed
by the Lucas County Democratic Party in this, his first race
for elected office.
During the announcement on
Tuesday, March 21 at International Park, Komives emphasized
his commitment to issues such as improving the quality of
water, managing health risks such as lead paint poisoning
and improving the city’s infrastructure.
“I have fought to protect
the rights of all individuals, keep our citizens safe and
allow our neighbors to grow and prosper,” said Komives.
The candidate was
introduced by Julian Mack, local Black Lives Matter activist
and organizer. “Nick loves Toledo,” said Mack in his
introduction. “It’s important that we embrace strong
leaders. Intersectionality is important for all of us to
rise.”
