The '''Charter Committee''' (also known as the '''Charter Party''')<ref name="engels">{{cite journal |url=https://muse.jhu.edu/article/723712/pdf |title=Cincinnati's Unique Charter Party |last=Engels |first=Christine Schmid |journal=Ohio Valley History |volume=19 |issue=1 |date=Spring 2019 |pages=73–76}}</ref> is an independent political organization dedicated to good government in [[Cincinnati, Ohio]]. Members of this committee are called Charterites. Committee organizers prefer the term Charter Committee rather than Charter Party. Because of Ohio State laws regarding vote percentage cutoffs for official party recognition, the Charter Committee is not an officially recognized political party in Ohio.<ref name="WhatsNext">{{cite news|last1=Brownfield|first1=Andy|title=What's Next for the Charter Committee?|url=http://www.citybeat.com/home/article/13009316/whats-next-for-the-charter-committee|access-date=6 November 2017|date=August 1, 2012}}</ref>
