Everything about Kathy Kozachenko totally explained
In January
1974,
Kathy Kozachenko's successful bid for a seat on the
Ann Arbor, Michigan city council made her the first openly
gay or
lesbian American to run successfully for political office.
Kozachenko ran on the ticket of the local, progressive
Human Rights Party (HRP), which had already succeeded in winning two Ann Arbor council seats in
1972.
Kozachenko's HRP predecessor in the Second Ward council seat,
Nancy Wechsler, had
come out as a
lesbian during her first and only term on city council, thus becoming the first openly lesbian public-office holder in the
United States. However, Wechsler didn't win office as an open lesbian; thus, Kozachenko was the first openly
gay or
lesbian candidate to win public office in the
United States.
