Ohio Republicans Expand Control of State Supreme Court
Briefly

Voters in Ohio shifted the Supreme Court from a 4-3 Republican advantage to a 6-1 majority, reflecting a stark political shift in state judicial elections.
As state courts gain prominence amidst federal inaction on key issues, judicial races have transformed into battlegrounds where national donors heavily influence outcomes.

Recent election cycles show a growing trend where judicial elections mirror hardball politics, as national groups aggressively fund campaigns focused on contentious issues.
