From The Statehouse to the Schoolhouse, Volume 33 (December 3rd, 2021)

A Political Candidate’s Guest Column in the December 2 Columbus Dispatch—Economic Development Group Must Come to End Is Right on Target Congressman Jim Renacci, a candidate for governor, hit the nail on the head in a December 2 Dispatch column. (This is not an endorsement of the candidate in any way, [...]

Word From The Chair

  • A Great Loss We have lost a very good man. I was informed over the weekend that Tom Jenkins passed away last week. Tom was a steadfast supporter of the Clermont County Democratic Party and a reliable source of wisdom. Tom served on our Executive Committee at the time of his passing as he had done for many years. Tom chaired the County Party’s audit committee and served as Treasurer of the West Clermont Democrats. I understand that a memorial service is planned for January 15, 2022 at 2:00 p.m. at St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Terrace Park. Tom will be greatly missed and long remembered. 2021 Election Excepting recounts for Loveland Council, Jackson Township Trustee, and the Milford City Charter amendment, the 2021 election is finished. One bright spot was the election of Emily Mason to the Milford Exempted Village School District Board of Education. Three candidates were elected.  Emily finished third, 117 votes ahead of fourth place and only two votes out of second. As we all know, the far-right targeted school boards and that was evident in this race. While Emily was an excellent candidate, what I think contributed most to her election was the tremendous amount of work she, her husband Bill, and others did on her campaign every day. I’m sure it was a huge sacrifice, but it paid off, not just for Emily but also for the students, parents, and teachers in the Milford schools. Congratulations to Emily and her supporters for an outstanding effort. 2022 Election The 2022 election has started. I have petitions to put several statewide candidates on the May 2022 primary ballot, including Tim Ryan for U.S. Senate and Jennifer Brunner for Chief Justice of the Ohio Supreme Court.  We need people to gather signatures on these petitions so we can return them by year-end.  If you can help, please call me at 513-236-5426. A Constant Thread I am currently re-reading the late David Halberstam’s 2007 book The Coldest Winter: America and the Korean War. In part, the book is a history of the Korean War, but it is also a history of American politics during the administration of President Harry S. Truman. In 1948, Republicans were very frustrated at having been out of national power since Franklin Roosevelt had first been elected President 16 years earlier. Republicans and many others were certain that their candidate, Thomas E. Dewey, would defeat President Truman in the 1948 election. We’ve all seen the famous picture of a grinning President Truman holding up a copy of the Chicago Tribune with the erroneous headline “Dewey Beats Truman.”  The 1948 defeat left many Republicans, particularly those on the party’s right wing, enraged. Shortly after President Truman was inaugurated in 1949, the Chinese Communists under Mao Zedong won the Chinese Civil War. This inspired many Republicans, most famously Senator Joseph McCarthy, to start attacking the Truman Administration with the charge that American had “lost China” because the Roosevelt and Truman Administrations were riddled with Soviet spies, Communists, and Communist sympathizers. Of these Republicans, Halberstam writes at pages 248-49 of his book something which I think remains relevant today: “So the loss of China was merely the visible part of the iceberg, the issue that might help them recover control of the country, making it once again their America. . ..  They neither liked nor trusted the America that had elected Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman, the big-city America of Catholics, Jews, Negroes, and unions. They distrusted anything or anyone that was different; and now it was time to get even.” With slight changes in wording, that same passage could be written about today’s Republican Party. The irrational devotion to donald trump and the call to vote for Republicans to “Stop The Madness” comes from a distrust of anyone different from them and a fear of losing “their America.” This distrust and fear were exacerbated by the election and re-election of a black man, Barack Obama, as President of the United States. Republicans are determined to get even, to create an America described by a trump supporter from northern Ohio interviewed on NPR in 2016 as the place where, “No one ever heard of gays or lesbians and blacks knew their place.” The only difference between 2021 and 1950 is a willingness by the Right, as evidenced by the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, to resort to violence to obtain “their America.” “Their America” has never been the real America. The real America has always been a land of diversity, a melting pot of different races, ethnicities, religions, and peoples. As Republicans like Robert LaFollette and Teddy Roosevelt once espoused, the real America is not a nation where wealth and power are meant to be concentrated in a few hands. As Democrats, we cannot be afraid. We must fight for the real America. We can never let it become “their America.” Stay safe.

  • 2021 Election The official election results will not be certified until Friday, November 19. Usually, that is a bit of a formality. However, there were a number of very close races around the county. The absentee ballots received by the Board of Elections after Election Day that are entitled to be counted and the provisional ballots entitled to be counted could change some outcomes from the unofficial results posted Election Night. It also seems likely that, for the first time since I joined the Board in 2015, there will be some mandatory recounts. In other words, it is too soon to say much that is meaningful about the November election. It is not too soon, however, to thank the Democrats who ran for office this year. They have earned our thanks and respect by stepping up. 2022 Election The 2021 election is not yet officially over, but we need to be thinking about 2022. Contested primary election races have already developed in both parties for the high visibility offices on next year’s ballot for U.S. Senator and Governor. US Congressman Tim Ryan and Columbus resident Morgan Harper are running for the Democratic nomination for US Senator. Outgoing Cincinnati Mayor John Cranley and Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley are running for the Democratic nomination for Governor. The less said about the Republicans the better. There are a number of other offices on the ballot in 2022, including State Representative, County Commissioner, and Auditor. Brian Flick has already announced his candidacy for State Representative for Ohio District 62, covering the northwest corner of Clermont County. We presently have no announced candidates for State Representative from District 63, covering the remainder of Clermont County and part of Brown County nor for the county offices mentioned above. The primary election to determine candidates for the November 2022 ballot will occur on May 3, 2022. To be on the primary ballot you must submit petitions by 4:00 p.m. on February 2, 2022. That is not much time. We saw Democrats step up this year to run for school boards, township trustee, and village councils. We need Democrats to step up and run next year. If you are thinking about running for an office and have questions I’ll be happy to talk to you. Just send me a message through the contact form on this website. Stay safe.

  • Election Day Today is Election Day 2021. I’m assuming most of you have already voted. If you haven’t, get to your polling place and vote! The right wants to undermine public faith in our electoral system. The best way to defeat that effort is to vote. All of the races on today’s ballot are “non-partisan,” meaning candidates are not identified on the ballot by party. The Clermont County Democratic Party has not endorsed any candidates in today’s election.  We hope that people will vote for the candidates who will do the best jobs for their communities without regard for the tribal antagonism that has infected our state and national politics. The following is my personal list of people whom I think you should consider voting for. Consistent with the idea of electing the best candidate without regard to partisanship, there is a Republican on my list. Clerk of Municipal Court Ralph Vilardo, Jr.  I don’t usually encourage people to vote for a Republican.  However, this is an important job that, up to now, has not been done well. All three candidates on the ballot are Republicans. One of them will be elected. Of those three, I think Ralph is the best choice. Do ask yourself why Clermont County has two elected Clerks of Court when larger counties in the State get along fine with only one. Milford Board of Education Emily Mason and Jara Bonner. This is a very strong recommendation. Please do not vote for anyone else for Milford School Board. This is a field race, meaning the top three vote getters are elected. A vote for anyone else helps put that person ahead of Emily and Jara. Union Township Trustee                                 Chad Quick. This is another very strong recommendation. Again, please do not vote for anyone else for trustee even though the ballot says to vote for two. This is another field race and a vote for any other candidate helps that candidate finish ahead of Chad. The other four candidates are Republicans and bad news for Union Township. Moscow Village Council Cheryl Richards.  This is my third very strong recommendation. I know Cheryl personally.  She will do an outstanding job for Moscow. This is also a field race. Please vote only for Cheryl. Pierce Township Trustee                                             This is a weaker recommendation, but I voted for Nick Kelly and Linda Spitzmiler. New Richmond Board of Education                       I do not know Amy Story, but several people in New Richmond whom I trust are voting for her. I’ve not heard anything positive about the other candidates. Stonelick Township Trustee                                       Again, I do not know this candidate, but people in that part of the county whom I respect recommend Edward Cooper. CNE Board of Education                                  This is another candidate whom I do not know, but people in that part of the county whom I respect recommend Danny Ilhardt. Stay safe.  Vote!

READ MORE READING ROOM   The Immoral Majority: Why Evangelicals Chose Political Power over Christian Values by Ben Howe Whatever happened to the Moral Majority, who headed to Washington in the ’80s to plant the flag of Christian values? Where were the Christian leaders that emerged from that movement and led the charge against Bill Clinton for his deception and unfaithfulness? Was all that a sham? Or have they just lost sight of why they wanted to win in the first place? From the 1980s scandals till today, evangelicals have often been caricatured as a congregation of judgmental and prudish rubes taken in by thundering pastors consumed with greed and lust for power. Did the critics have a point? In The Immoral Majority, Howe—still a believer and still deeply conservative—analyzes and debunks the intellectual dishonesty and manipulative rhetoric which evangelical leaders use to convince Christians to toe the Republican Party line. He walks us through the history of the Christian Right, as well as the events of the last three decades which led to the current state of the conservative movement at large.

But regardless of whether your chosen candidates won or lost we must remain vigilant in holding our elected officials accountable. They work for us and we have a right to know if they are working in our best interests. One way of doing this is to attend your local township trustee meetings. Clermont County has fourteen townships. Each township has three elected trustees. For years the same candidates get elected, and believe it or not there are some Democrats in the mix. Township officials are elected on a nonpartisan ballot in the November general election, in odd-numbered years. The filing fee for candidates is $10. Every other year, half of the township officials are up for election. For example, in 2021, two township trustees were up for election. In 2023, the remaining township trustee and the fiscal officer will be up for election. As the saying goes “all politics is local”. Politics is not something other people do and talk about. It is important for all of us to be […]

THAT David Pepper. Our former Ohio Democratic Party Chair) “It’s the statehouses, stupid.” Laboratories of Autocracy shows that far more than the high-profile antics of politicians like Marjorie Taylor Greene or Jim Jordan—and yes, even bigger than Donald Trump’s “Big Lie”—it’s anonymous, often corrupt politicians in statehouses across the country who pose the greatest dangers to American democracy. Because these statehouses no longer operate as functioning democracies, these unknown politicians have all the incentive to keep doing greater damage, and can not be held accountable however extreme they get. This has driven steep declines in states like Ohio and others across the country. And collectively, it’s placed American democracy in its greatest peril since the dawn of the Jim Crow era. But Pepper doesn’t stop there. He lays out a robust pro-democracy agenda outlining how everyone from elected officials to business leaders to everyday citizens can fight back.
