The Union Democrat is a newspaper that serves the Sonora and Sierra Nevada foothills area of Tuolumne and Calaveras counties in California since 1854.

History[edit]

The paper was acquired by Oregon-based Western Communications in 1998. Before then, it was owned and published by Harvey and Helen McGee.[1]

In 2019, Western Communications declared bankruptcy, placing all of its properties, including The Union Democrat, up for sale. The Union Democrat was sold to RISN Operations.[2]
