Endorsed! Timothy Grady for Ohio!
During last Sunday’s Pirate National Committee meeting, members voted to endorse the campaign of Timothy Grady, independent candidate for Governor of Ohio in his 2026 gubernatorial race.
Having joined out meeting, which you can catch the recap of here, Mr. Grady gave us his best pitch for not only why we should endorse his campaign, but also an opportunity for Ohio voters to hear from the independent candidate.
After a long meeting and opportunity to ask questions, the decision was unanimous: the US Pirate Party will support the Grady campaign!
You can see the official announcement from Timothy Grady’s page here.
It should be noted that Tim Grady is not running as a proxy of the Ohio Pirate Party (which is active but unofficial), nor is the Grady campaign strictly a Pirate campaign. The United States Pirate Party values honest campaigns, person-first agendas and anyone who fights for free and open.
The 2026 election cycle will feature explicitly Pirate candidates, running as independents, DINOS/RINOS and explicitly as Pirates. While Timothy Grady is not one of those Pirate candidates, we are happy to throw our support towards a candidate who shares our values.
Ohio, you have a chance to say “Enough is enough”.
Timothy Grady, Victory is Arrrs
