Judge Andrew King
@akingohio
Ohio Court of Appeals Judge, Fifth District. Adjunct law professor. Personal account.

The Butler County Lincoln Day banquet was a reminder that we stand for Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. It was a wonderful event. Thank you BCGOP. Please vote @marcellstrbich and @akingohio

As our @ohiogop prepares to meet this weekend, I want to share that I am endorsing Judge @akingohio to be our next Ohio Supreme Court Justice. I’ve come to know Judge King well over many years and he is precisely the type of young, conservative, originalist judge that the Republican Party should be working to promote in the judiciary. He’s worked in private practice, as a public defender, as a prosecutor, and now as an appellate judge. I’m one of the few practicing lawyers presently serving in the Ohio General Assembly, I focus much of my efforts on improving the legal system, and that experience is why I’m confident Judge King will win this seat in the general election and provide great jurisprudence for the State of Ohio. I greatly respect Justice Pat Fischer, and I’ve happily supported him in all his prior races for the Ohio Supreme Court. If Justice Fischer could legally run for re-election to his own seat, I would support him again. But he cannot. I am a very strong supporter of the Ohio Constitution’s age 70 judicial retirement age. So are a substantial majority of Ohio voters, who rejected a proposed amendment to raise that retirement age to 75 back in 2011, by a margin of 25 points. And so I cannot support a maneuver that is 1) designed to undermine the spirit of that constitutional provision, and 2) which would ultimately result in another unelected justice being appointed to the Ohio Supreme Court. In 2026, voters should select our next Justice, not the governor. For all these reasons, I’ll be working to elect Judge King.

@akingohio With a law degree from Capital?!?!

So measured in tone, yet utterly devastating. From Alito’s majority opinion overturning previous SCOTUS precedents on racial gerrymandering under the color of the Voting Rights Act: “Gingles was decided at a time when this Court often paid insufficient attention to the language of statutory provisions, and Justice Brennan’s opinion for the Court followed this pattern.”

Let's put the best Republican on the Supreme Court. I am a constitutional conservative, a judge, and a former prosecutor. I will always be faithful to my oath, the constitution, and the law. On May 5th, vote King for the Supreme Court.
