Speaker:
Geauga County will have a decision in November for common pleas judge. One candidate is a Democrat (Ms. Trapp) and one candidate is a Republican (Mr. Rambo). Do the values that align with their parties make a difference? It is said this is a non-partisan race, but why run in a partisan primary. Mr. Rambo and Ms. Trapp will present to the public at the Geauga County Tea Party meeting October 1st. What do they believe, why should they deserve to be a Judge and how will their values weigh in on their decisions. Geauga County will be impacted by their decisions. Come and be prepared to ask them the right questions to see which one of these candidates deserves our votes. We need to vote for the one that meets our morals and standards. Listen closely on what they will be speaking. It’s time to vote out of office the ones who are not helping the American people.
My legal career began with the Court of Claims of Ohio. Shortly after being hired in 2005, I was promoted to magistrate, which began my judicial career. I presided over my own courtroom and had a bailiff and court reporter.
As a magistrate, I oversaw a docket of 125-150 cases. I was responsible for managing and deciding each case from beginning to end. I did all of my own legal research and wrote hundreds of my own judgment entries and decisions. I also conducted attorney conferences and presided over trials when necessary.
- In September 2013, I joined the Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court, where I worked with Judge Richard McMonagle and later, Judge Maureen Clancy. Under those judges, I managed their entire civil dockets, performed all research necessary for each case, conducted every attorney conference and wrote all of the court’s entries and decisions.
Judge Mary Jane Trapp
She is recognized throughout the state for her distinguished legal knowledge and experience. Judge Trapp returned to the bench in February 2019, having previously served six years as a judge on the Eleventh District Court of Appeals from 2007 to 2013. She has served as its Administrative Judge in 2008 and as its Presiding/Administrative Judge in 2009, 2010, and 2021. She has also served as a visiting judge on the Supreme Court of Ohio and in four sister districts by assignment of the Chief Justice.
Judge Trapp is a leader at the state and national level in issues of administration of justice and legal reform. She has served on nine Supreme Court of Ohio commissions, committees, and task forces to develop policy for the bench and bar and served on Ohio Judicial Conference and College committees, including continuing service on the Ohio Jury Instructions Board of Editors, which she co-chairs, and on the Appellate Law and Procedure Committee. She is a member of the Executive Committee of the Council of Chief Judges of the State Courts of Appeal and chairs its Education Committee. She is the immediate Past President of the William K. Thomas American Inn of Court.
But politics had other plans. In 2009, the Obama Administration took over General Motors, shuttering dealerships across the country— including Jim’s in Northeast Ohio. Shutting down Jim’s dealership killed 50 good-paying jobs in his community.
In 2010, Jim filed to run for U.S. Congress in Ohio’s 16th Congressional District, taking on a well funded Democratic incumbent. Jim won the election by 9 percent.
While in Congress, Jim earned a reputation for being a principled conservative and effective legislator. He quickly rose through the ranks to serve on the Committee on Financial Services, as vice-chair of the Subcommittee on Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit, and as a member of the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations. After just two years, Jim was named to the powerful Ways and Means Committees and Budget Committees.
Jim left congress in 2019 and was the US Senate Nominee in 2018, later running for governor in 2022.
Mark was always an enthusiastic supporter of Donald Trump’s “America First” agenda, and still is.
Frustrated with the direction of the country and the horrific way President Trump was being treated, Mark decided he had to act and registered with the Federal Election Commission to primary Rob Portman, Ohio’s junior Senator, in October 2019. He is the only candidate who was willing to primary the incumbent, monied, establishment, Portman.
Mark was focused on taking America back from career politicians, tech oligarchs, and the academic elite through his BIG-7 / DISRUPT Agenda. After not winning the primary election in May.
Mark has vowed to help other Citizen-Candidates prevail across the US. He founded the Grassroots Freedom Initiative the morning after his primary loss to do just that. To join Mark is his journey to

SKIP CLAYPOOL
You may have heard that the League of Women Voters and the Democrats are leading an effort to promote a constitutional amendment for “Fair Districting”. What do you know about this effort and is it good or bad. First things first. Many of us know that when you hear the term “FAIR” used regarding legislation you can be assured it is NOT fair. Moreover, constitutional amendments are problematic for a variety of reasons. Constitutional amendments are difficult to repeal and/or change if they don’t work as proposed. But every citizens needs to be concerned over this effort to change the political landscape. Geauga has been carved up and we now have two state representatives. We also have two state senators. Those districts were created by a bipartisan panel that was pushed by the democrat party.
- Out of state money changing our constitution. Obama, Eric Holder, and other Marxist
- Led by those who hate our Republic and don’t understand we are a republic. Look at the Leauge of Women Voters web site. They shout loudly that we need to protect Democracy. Yet American is NOT a Democracy and with God’s grace we never will be.
- The Constitutional Amendment is complicated and unworkable and has messed up other states. It is NOT led by local Ohio citizens. The LWV and Ohio Democrats are simply useful idiots that are being used by national organizations and big money.
Is this effort good. NO and every voter needs to pass the word. Your state legislators, Republican Parties, and the State GOP are selling you down the river and NOT fighting this why? You should ask.

What you will read is an extremely complicated unworkable plan that is filled with ridiculous claims and approaches.
For example the following comes out of the law:
- At every stage, selections shall “ensure that the commission reflects the geographic and demographic diversity of Ohio”
- Ohio is 76% White, 12.3% Black, 4.4% Hispanic or Latino, and 2.5% Asian
- Therefore, the commission is Constitutionally required to have:
* 12 white members
* 2 black members
* 2/3rds of a Latino member
* 1/3rd of an Asian member
And the league of women voter’s website says:
We fix this by getting politicians out of the map making process. Unfortunately, that violates our constitution. We elect a representative form of government now we want to violate that by taking our elected officials out of the process. And does anyone think that those who will seek to serve on this commission are not political? It is a ridiculous statement and idea and intentionally corrupt.
There are many more criticisms, but we will need to write a book. Stay tuned.
