Ohio Supreme Court

On Monday, the court re-affirmed a decision that has been derided and mocked by legal scholars and media pundits all over the nation. On Tuesday, it handed a win to pharmacy chains, possibly upending a $650 million relief effort to Ohio's opioid epidemic.

The three Republicans running for Ohio Supreme Court justice won their races, leaving just one Democrat on the court with six Republicans.

We’ll discuss the candidates and how the outcome of this race could impact the state.

Ohio Supreme Court Justice Joe Deters says Democrats only want to change the rules on redistricting because they can't win under the present rules.

Republicans hold a 4-3 majority on Ohio's highest court, but could swell that majority to 6-1 if they win all three seats in November.

Joe Deters, the least experienced justice on the Ohio Supreme Court, is taking on incumbent Democrat Melody Stewart, the first African American woman elected to the court.

Republicans make up the majority of the justices on Ohio's Supreme Court, but three Democrats hope to change that composition come November's general election.

Some think the Republican Ohio Supreme Court justice violated judicial codes of ethics by hearing the case and failing to recuse himself. But Deters said he anticipated this kind of situation.

The 2024 race will be a battle for control of the court.

Ohio Democrats believe they can flip the partisan makeup of the Ohio Supreme Court in their favor next year.
