Statement from ORP Chairman Jane Timken Regarding Senator Rob Portman's Decision to Not Pursue Re-Election in 2022
“Rob Portman is a statesman whose service to our country and our party over nearly three decades has been invaluable. His leadership and temperament will be missed in the halls of the U.S. Senate and amongst Ohio Republicans. While we have huge shoes to fill in the U.S. Senate, I thank Senator Portman for his service and hope all Ohioans will join me in recognizing his accomplishments that furthered our great state.”

So much for "no evidence" of fraud or cheating in the state of Georgia. The headline on this story is a link to the Government Oversight section of the hearing which took place on December 3rd in the morning hours.
Here is another link.
This link takes you to the GA Senate Judiciary committee portion of the hearings held in the afternoon hours of December 3rd.
All videos posted regarding all State Legislature hearings on voter fraud have been sourced directly to their respective state government websites to ensure you, the reader, aren't watching edited or tampered footage. This and other news posts on this site are recordings of the real hearings, where real evidence of fraud was presented.
Click to hear evidence of voter fraud in Michigan for yourself!
The mainstream media will not cover or comment on the information presented to the Michigan State Legislature. So we have directly linked the video of the Trump legal team's presentation and several witnesses testifying. It is posted on the State of Michigan Legislature's website.
Side note: You would expect to find this video cataloged as "elections", but instead it was buried on the state legislature website under "oversight" videos. The powers that be in Michigan would prefer that you not see this tape. All the more reason for you to watch for yourself and see what really went on in the State of Michigan.
Click to hear evidence of voter fraud in Pennsylvania for yourself!
You may have heard there is no evidence of voter fraud in PA. Well here is the recording of the public hearing as posted by the PA State Senate. Listen to the evidence and arguments presented for yourself, then you be the judge as to whether the news media is lying to you.

Letter from the OSBA Chairman regardinging 2020 OSC judicial candidates.
2020 Supreme Court of Ohio Candidate Ratings
Fellow Members of the Ohio State Bar Association,
I am pleased to inform you that the bipartisan OSBA Commission on Judicial Candidates has completed its evaluation of the four candidates running for the Supreme Court of Ohio for the Nov. 3, 2020 General Election. As members of the OSBA, you are receiving this information prior to the official release to the media and the general public later today.
Operating under the process adopted by the Board of Governors, Commission members scored each candidate according to the following criteria: legal knowledge and ability, professional competence, judicial temperament, integrity and diligence, personal responsibility, and public and community service.
Out of 30 possible points, candidates receiving a total composite score of 25 or higher, based upon their average scores in each category, earned a rating of “Highly Recommended.” A score between 19 and 24 would garner a rating of “Recommended.” And those earning 18 or less, would be deemed “Qualified by Statute.” Each candidate was scored on an individual basis, without regard to whom they were facing on the November ballot.
The ratings and scores are as follows:
Judge Jennifer Brunner was rated Recommended, with a score of 20. - Democrat
Justice Judith L. French was rated Highly Recommended, with a score of 27. - Republican
Justice Sharon L. Kennedy was rated Recommended, with a score of 23. - Republican
Judge John P. O’Donnell was rated Recommended, with a score of 24. - Democrat
These scores were informed by a thorough evaluation of the candidates by the Commission, including a written questionnaire and resume, as well as a review of each candidate’s decisions, writings, publications, letters of reference, docket reports, financial disclosure statements and other public records. Lawyers, judges and other citizens familiar with each candidate’s reputation, past performance and qualifications were consulted as part of the vetting. And finally, each candidate was interviewed individually by the Commission last week.
Though judges make decisions that affect the everyday lives of Ohioans, voters consistently report that they do not know enough about the candidates to make informed decisions. I’d like to thank the candidates, the members of the Commission, and the OSBA for their efforts to provide context and good information to members of the bar, as well as the public, and their commitment to promoting a well-informed electorate this November.
Sincerely,
Martin E. Mohler
Chairman, OSBA Commission on Judicial Candidates
