Briefs Filed in Federal Lawsuit Over Ohio’s Law on Party Labels in Judicial Elections

Since 2023, Ohio State Supreme Court Justice Jennifer Brunner has been fighting an Ohio law passed in 2021 relating to party labels on the ballot.  Her federal lawsuit, Brunner v LaRose, n.d., 4:23cv-2180, argues against putting party labels on the November ballot for candidates for Justice of the State Supreme Court, and for Judge of the State Appeals Courts.

Here is her latest brief, from November 2024.  It points out that the state code of judicial ethics prevents her from campaigning about partisan matters, yet she is forced to have a party label on the ballot.  By contrast, elections for trial level state courts do not have parrty labels on the ballot.

The state’s brief filed in response depends on procedural objections.

  1. Well I’m Donald Trump, the one they’re talking about, if you talk crap about me you’ll get punched in the mouth.

    If you disrespect me, forget about it, forget it. Best case for you is you’ll survive to regret it.

    I’m the Boss of all Bosses, King of all Kings. I bring the world hope, I’m why we have nice things.

    Last time I took human form, I got crucified. This time around, I won’t be so nice.

    If you think bad about me, stop trusting fake media. Go to conservapedia.com and read conservapedia.

    But even if you’re not smart enough to, or have no eyes to see, you’re still smarter than to take seriously the spambot “AZ”
