Beyond Shadow of a Doubt: Ohioans Go Red on Election Night as GOP Takes Supreme Court & State Races

Admin : Nov 11, 2022  Frontlines Ohio

"This is evidence when Ohioans are properly informed on issues, they will choose candidates who hold conservative positions like on the sanctity of life." -Pastor Mark Wireman

(North Central Ohio) — [FrontlinesOhio.com] The blood red moon early on election day was a foreshadowing of things to come in the Buckeye State as the GOP took key races on election night in the House, Senate, and Supreme Court. With all three conservative justices winning their respective races, the State Supreme Court will turn from a 3-4 conservative minority to a 4-3 majority. (Screengrab image: via Frontlines Ohio)

"This is evidence when Ohioans are properly informed on issues, they will choose candidates who hold conservative positions like on the sanctity of life," says Pastor Mark Wireman. Wireman led a group of 112 lead clergy endorsing conservative justices for the State Supreme Court and for lower courts in Tuesday's general election. The clergy called the election a "matter of life and death." All five judicial candidates won.

Wireman hopes the State Supreme Court can be used to bring an end to abortion. He points out that in coming days, Governor Mike DeWine will fill the vacancy created by Sharon Kennedy's election to Chief Justice with a fourth conservative judge.

"Judges play a key role in our society, especially in the post-Roe era. As GOD says in the Book of Isaiah, 'I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counselors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, the city of righteousness, the faithful city."

In addition to the Supreme Court, Republicans swept statewide races for Governor, Attorney General, Treasurer, Auditor, and Secretary of State. Unofficially the GOP controls the State House by a 64-30 margin and the State Senate by a 25-7 margin. Many of the GOP candidates are pro life advocates.

Melanie Miller (R) defeated Drew Burge (D) for 67th State District seat by an 70-30% unofficial count. State House District 67 includes all of Ashland County and part of Medina County. Miller is the Executive Director of the Ashland Pregnancy Care Center. She commented, "It goes without saying, the life issue is of utmost importance to me. So of course I'm going to continue being a champion for that issue and for 1 families."

Meanwhile, Jim Obergefell (D) was defeated in his bid to become a State Rep. for the 89th District. Obergefell was the lead plaintiff against the State of Ohio in a US Supreme Court case that led to the legalization of same-sex marriage in 2015. The controversial decision broke over four hundred years of western civilization precedent.

Also in the 2020 midterms, Republicans won ten of the fifteen US Congressional seats. With the new redistricting maps, Congressman Jim Jordan will be representing Richland County where he originally began his career.

Senate Candidate J.D. Vance (R) defeated Tim Ryan to replace Rob Portman in the US Senate.

In statewide issues, Ohioans overwhelmingly chose to prohibit non-citizens from voting in local elections and for public safety to be taken into consideration before determining bail for

Conservative judges on the down ticket also won their respective races. Both conservative candidates for the Fifth District Court of Appeals including Craig Baldwin won, their races. Attorney Beth Owens also won her race for Richland County Common Pleas Domestic Court unofficially by a 61-39% margin. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
