Dems Vote No Endorsement for Cuyahoga County Prosecutor, Mcdonnell Came Closest, Chandra 2Nd, Kelley 3Rd, Mcginty 4Th, State Reps, Judges Endorsed Dems vote no endorsement for Cuyahoga County prosecutor, McDonnell came closest, Chandra 2nd, Kelley 3rd, McGinty 4th, state reps, judges endorsed Written by Kathy Sunday, 11 December 2011 07:33 - Last Updated Wednesday, 07 March 2012 19:55 EUCLID, Ohio-At its Dec 7. meeting the Executive Committee of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party issued a no endorsement to the six candidates seeking its support that are vying to replace Bill Mason for county prosecutor, a man still with political influence who helped propel two of his assistant prosecutors to judgeship's in Nov. "There was no endorsement in that race because none of the candidates received 60 percent of the vote of the Executive Committee members in attendance as required for an endorsement, " said Nick Martin, 31, Executive Director of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party. "And in that and other races a few people abstained from voting." Mason, 52, announced in Oct that he will not seek a fourth four-year term. He has not groomed a successor. Nor has he mumbled a word on whom he supports, a strategy that has heightened mystery around his upcoming departure from office. Under the leadership of party chairman Stuart Garson, an area trial attorney, 486 of the 630 executive committee members met Wed. evening at the Cleveland Convention Center to vote on endorsements for the March 6 Democratic primary for state representative, county prosecutor, and contested races for judge of the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas, juvenile court, and Ohio Eighth District Court of Appeals. The filing deadline for the offices was Dec. 7. 1 / 5 Dems vote no endorsement for Cuyahoga County prosecutor, McDonnell came closest, Chandra 2nd, Kelley 3rd, McGinty 4th, state reps, judges endorsed Written by Kathy Sunday, 11 December 2011 07:33 - Last Updated Wednesday, 07 March 2012 19:55 Though he failed to win the party endorsement for county prosecutor, James McDonnell, the brother of longtime Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas Judge Nancy McDonnell and a former North Royalton city prosecutor, got the most votes at 226. Former Cleveland Law Director Subodh Chandra, who served in the role under former Cleveland Mayor Jane Campbell, trailed in second place with 101 votes, and Cleveland Ward 13 Councilman Kevin Kelley came in third with 85 votes. Chandra said in his speech to the Executive Committee that he would obey the law and work to bring "Blacks and Whites together." Tim McGinty, a former common pleas court judge who resigned from the bench in Oct. to run for county prosecutor, came in fourth with only 33 votes, followed by Robert Triozzi, a former Cleveland Municipal Court judge and prior law director for Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson who got only 24 votes, even with the mayor's support via a letter to members of the Executive Committee. Stephanie Hall, a University Circle police, former assistant county prosecutor, and prior common pleas court foreclosure magistrate, made an unexpected entrance into the race and got six votes, finishing in sixth place. She is the only Black in the race. A former assistant Cuyahoga County prosecutor before he became judge whose decisions and orders have been repeatedly overturned on appeal for jailing Blacks illegally and otherwise harassing them, and an admitted source to the Cleveland Plain Dealer Newspaper who often publicly criticized his judicial colleagues, McGinty is probably the most colorful candidate. He took to the stage at the gathering and startled people after he told party members that he should be endorsed because had he been the county prosecutor at the time he would have prosecuted serial killer Anthony Sowell rather than to have release him from custody in 2008 to kill the last six of his 11 Black female victims. 2 / 5 Dems vote no endorsement for Cuyahoga County prosecutor, McDonnell came closest, Chandra 2nd, Kelley 3rd, McGinty 4th, state reps, judges endorsed Written by Kathy Sunday, 11 December 2011 07:33 - Last Updated Wednesday, 07 March 2012 19:55 Sowell, who was convicted this summer of the murders and a host of other crimes, awaits the death penalty, though his convictions are on appeal. "McGinty is prejudice and so is Triozzi, and I believe that that is why members of the Executive Committee did not really support either of them," said an executive committee member under condition of anonymity. In other races incumbent state representatives Armond Budish (D-8), Barbara Boyd (D-9), Bill Patmon (D-10), Sandra Williams (D-11), John Barnes Jr. (D-12), Nickie Antonio (D-13), and Mike Foley (D-14) were endorsed. Williams, Boyd, and Budish drew challengers in the Democratic primary and Budish, if he wins the Democratic primary as expected, and Foley, will face a Republican challenger in next year's Nov. general election. For the common pleas bench Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas incumbent judges Shirley Strickland Saffold and John Sutula received endorsements for six-year terms and Alison Nelson Floyd, also an incumbent, was endorsed for juvenile court. All three face challengers in the primary and Strickland Saffold, if she wins there, faces Republican Cathryn Ensign for the Nov. general election. Cassandra Collier- Williams was endorsed to face popular Republican Common Pleas Court Judge Joan Synenburg, and the county Democratic party chose Attorney Dean Van Dress to go up against the controversial Kathleen Sutula, a Republican too, and a judge on the common pleas bench since 1991 whose home was once shot up with bullets by a disgruntled criminal who expected a lighter sentence from the "hangin judge." Collier- Williams is Black, and a well respected criminal defense lawyer who worked at one time in the law office of Cleveland NAACP President George Forbes, a prominent attorney and general counsel for the Call and Post Newspaper, Ohio's Black press with distributions in Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati. 3 / 5 Dems vote no endorsement for Cuyahoga County prosecutor, McDonnell came closest, Chandra 2nd, Kelley 3rd, McGinty 4th, state reps, judges endorsed Written by Kathy Sunday, 11 December 2011 07:33 - Last Updated Wednesday, 07 March 2012 19:55 Though endorsed by the Plain Dealer, she lost a race for common pleas judge last year. Assistant Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael Jackson got the Democratic endorsement in the race to replace Democratic retiring common pleas judge Ron Suster. Also in that race is Cleveland Municipal Court Judge Emanuella Groves, among other Democratic contenders. The winner will face Republican Marilyn Cassidy, a Cleveland Municipal Court judge. Cullen Sweeney got the endorsement in the race to replace Republican Robert McClelland, who is also retiring from the common pleas bench. The county Democratic party selected Steven Gall to take on Republican Common Pleas Court Judge Annette Butler, a former federal prosecutor and a one time unsuccessful candidate for county prosecutor against Mason whom Gov. John Kasich appointed last month to the judicial seat that McGinty vacated to run for county prosecutor. Janet Burney, who is Black and a previous juvenile court judge who lost a Democratic primary in 2004 to now Juvenile Court Judge Kristen Sweeney by less that 2 percent of the vote, also sought the party's endorsement in the race against Butler, though Gall was chosen. Butler and Saffold are two of three Black judges in the 34 member general division of the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas, with the third being Judge Lance Mason, a former state senator, and protege of greater Cleveland's Old Black Political Guard. Steven Terry, who is Black, was a Cuyahoga County common pleas court judge until his convictions on corruption related charges earlier this year that netted a hefty fine and six-year prison sentence from Federal District Court Judge Sara Lioi. Kasich appointed Brecksville Republican Pamela Barker to replace Terry, and Assistant Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Colleen Ann Reali got the Democratic endorsement for that race over Keith Belkin. Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas Judge Daniel Gaul, just off of a six month suspension by the Ohio Supreme Court last year that was stayed pending good behavior, got the Democratic endorsement to face Republican candidate Edel Passalacqua in Nov. But 4 / 5 Dems vote no endorsement for Cuyahoga County prosecutor, McDonnell came closest, Chandra 2nd, Kelley 3rd, McGinty 4th, state reps, judges endorsed Written by Kathy Sunday, 11 December 2011 07:33 - Last Updated Wednesday, 07 March 2012 19:55 county juvenile court judge Joe Russo lost the the endorsement for the seat he holds to Assistant County Prosecutor Frankie Goldberg, a lieutenant of Mason's, and a popular University Heights City Council member. Also vying in that race in the Democratic primary is Attorney William McGinty. Russo put his Democratic seat at risk after pleading guilty to disorderly conduct following a drunken escapade with his then girlfriend. And last Feb. the Ohio Supreme Court suspended his law license for a year but stayed the suspension if he completes an alcohol recovery program and stays out of trouble. The Ohio Eighth District Court of Appeals will lose Democratic judges Colleen Conway Cooney and James Sweeney to retirement. Endorsed for the Democratic primary for the seat held by Conway Cooney was Eileen T. Gallagher, a common pleas court judge, and for the appellate seat that Sweeney is retiring from, the endorsement went to Parma Municipal Court Judge Timothy Gilligan. He faces Juvenile Court Judge Peter Sikora, former Cuyahoga County Commissioner Tim McCormack, Erin O'Toolel and Lori Dyke as other Democratic primary contenders, and Gallagher will battle Joseph Compoli for the primary, though Compoli did not attend Wednesday's endorsement session. Cuyahoga County, which includes the predominantly Black major metropolitan city of Cleveland, is Ohio's largest with some 1.2 million people.

SB”) 117 was passed in the Ohio Senate on May 9, 2007 and the bill was immediately forwarded to the Ohio House of Representatives where it is being reviewed by the House Public Utilities Committee in which Sponsor’s introduction and proponents' hearing is expected to commence on May 23, 2007 with opponents' hearing to follow; and WHEREAS, in its present form, Sub.

  • The Impact of Race Upon Legislators' Policy Preferences and Bill
    THE IMPACT OF RACE UPON LEGISLATORS’ POLICY PREFERENCES AND BILL SPONSORSHIP PATTERNS: THE CASE OF OHIO DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Linda M. Trautman, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor William E. Nelson, Jr., Adviser Professor Tom Nelson ________________________ Adviser Professor Herbert Weisberg Political Science Graduate Program Copyright Linda M. Trautman 2007 ABSTRACT The principal purpose of this research is to explain and to analyze the policy preferences of Black and White state legislators in the Ohio General Assembly. In particular, the study seeks to understand whether or not Black state legislators advocate a distinctive policy agenda through an analysis of their policy preferences and bill sponsorship patterns. Essentially, one of the central objectives of the study is to determine the extent to which legislators’ perceptions of their policy preferences actually correspond with their legislative behavior (i.e., bill sponsorship patterns). In addition to understanding the impact of race upon legislative preferences, I also analyze additional factors (e.g., institutional features, district characteristics, etc.) which potentially influence legislators’ policy preferences and legislative behavior. The data for this inquiry derive from personal interviews with members of the Ohio legislature conducted in the early to late 1990’s and legislative bills introduced in the 1998-1999 session. The analyses of these data suggest that Black state legislators exhibit distinctive agenda setting behavior measured in terms of their policy priorities and bill sponsorship patterns in comparison to White state legislators.

  • Annual Report 2007.Indd
    SHAKER SCHOOLS FOUNDATION ANNUAL REPORT 2007 From the President As President of the Shaker Schools Foundation, I am pleased to report on the results of the 2007 fi scal year, which is very short, by intention. The Board decided to change our fi scal year from a calendar cycle to a project period that corresponds with the Shaker Heights City School District. Therefore, FY2006 and FY2008 are 12-month periods, and FY2007 is a 6-month period, from Janu- ary 1 through June 30, 2007. We may have been “short” on time, but our community continued to be “long” on generosity. The Shaker Schools Foundation is most apprecia- tive of our dedicated donors, and I am grateful to each member of our board and staff, as well as to the administration and School Board. It is a pleasure to collaborate with all of them on behalf of Shaker’s extraordinary schools. The Shaker Schools Foundation exists to provide resources to enrich the educational experiences of students in the Shaker Heights City Schools. During 2007, our donors helped us to fulfi ll our mission through grants to 36 teachers for projects such as the purchase of magnetic levitation vehicles to teach a supplemental physics unit to ninth graders; increased support for the Minority Achievement Committee’s programs at the High School; and awards to recognize the academic and extra-curricular accomplishments of 38 students. Much of our fundraising focused on the Auditorium Campaign to renovate and restore the large auditorium at Shaker Heights High School. Early in the year we met the Ratner Challenge, which helped the Foundation reach the $500,000 mark in its fundraising.

  • 2006 Primary Election Results
    The Hannah Report Special Election Edition May 3, 2006 2006 Primary Election Results Party caucuses held a few surprises Tuesday. There were a number of anticipated blow-outs and several nail-biters, including a seven-way Democratic primary in the 10th House District that was still too close to call at end of business Wednesday. Results remain officially "unofficial" in all races and do not reflect provisional voting. Absentee ballots were also out in Cuyahoga County, where the election board was forced to count votes by hand in the 10th District and other races. A disclaimer at the secretary of state's website notes that results will be final 81 days after the date on which county boards of elections have all completed official canvases, which must be no later than May 23, 2006. Statewide Races U.S. Rep. Ted Strickland (D-Ohio) easily overcame his opponent to win the Democratic caucus for governor by a factor of four. Bryan Flannery was unable to capitalize on allegations concerning a former Strickland staffer arrested for public indecency. On the Republican side, Secretary of State Ken Blackwell banked on a well-organized and financially generous grassroots effort to pass Attorney General Jim Petro for the gubernatorial nomination. In the attorney general campaign, Sen. Tim Grendell (R-Chesterland) acknowledged the inevitability of former attorney general Betty Montgomery's bid for another Republican nomination to her old job, conceding early Tuesday to the sitting auditor. Among Democrats, former Cleveland law director Subodh Chandra won numerous newspaper endorsements -- though not his party's -- for attorney general, which was instead claimed by leading workers' comp critic Sen.

    BAD MINDS,PLACES HIGH BAD MINDS, HIGH PLACES BAD MINDS, HIGH PLACES Ohio to Washington State Ohio to Washington State Cuyahoga River on fire River Cuyahoga The FBI R aids on Cleveland 1990 Lake Washington bridge collapse “Bad Minds, High Places” tells the story of an attorney who wrote an editorial critical of a Bedford Ohio judge, after which he was pursued across the country by several sets of police and banned from all Ohio court review. It exposes the hidden and organized corruption of a politicized state judiciary that intentionally failed on an alarming scale from the local to the Grundstein Robert federal level. The failure not only represents a damaged structure, but also a grass roots deterioration of American character. “Bad Minds, High Places” shows how elected judiciaries fail and how judges, police, prosecutors and even court clerical staff turned institutions charged with maintaining ethical standards into criminal, personal interest groups.
