Campaign Website
Judge O’Neill served ten years on the 11th District Court of Appeals from 1997 to 2007. He is a graduate of Ohio University, Cleveland Marshall College of Law and Huron School of Nursing. Before being elected and re-elected to the Court of Appeals he was an Assistant Attorney General for the State of Ohio from 1984 to 1996. Judge O’Neill is also a retired Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Army and was awarded the Bronze Star for his service in Vietnam.
Judge O’Neill is running because he believes the way we elect Judges in Ohio is fundamentally flawed. It is a broken system, and Justice Robert Cupp, his opponent, is part of the problem.

(614) 221-6563
Campaign Website
Ohio Supreme Court Justice Yvette McGee Brown has a unique perspective on the struggles facing Ohio families — because she has lived them and fought to address them for decades as a judge and leading family advocate. The eldest child of a single mother who worked two jobs to support her family, Yvette understood that education was the key to future success. She beat the odds and was accepted to Ohio University in Athens, where she graduated with the help of financial aid, student loans and work-study programs. Yvette won a full scholarship to The Ohio State University Law School, graduating in 1985. She went to work in the Ohio Attorney General’s Office, then became chief legal counsel to the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections and, later, the Department of Youth Services. She took a particular interest in juvenile corrections and the cycle of abuse and neglect that affects many young people in Ohio. So she determined to do something about it.

“I will continue to ask the ‘tough’ questions on a number of issues to insure that ALL interests are represented and ‘open’ government is maintained. Whether the issue is retaining jobs or attracting new ones, finding alternative sources of revenue, strengthening our police and fire protection, or building improved streets and sidewalks, the spirit of ‘open’ government must be maintained, though the process is oftentimes slow, challenging, but rewarding.”
