Judge Andrew King - Running for Ohio Supreme Court

Judge Andrew King joins the 55KRC Morning Show to discuss his campaign for the Ohio Supreme Court, challenging incumbent Democrat Jennifer Brunner. He emphasizes his commitment to constitutional conservatism, originalism, and textualism, arguing that judges must apply the law as written rather than impose personal or political preferences. King critiques what he calls 'woke judges' who, in his view, undermine the criminal justice system by failing to punish offenders and ignoring public safety concerns. He highlights the DeBoe case as an example of judicial overreach that weakened pretrial detention standards, leading to increased recidivism. King also discusses the personal toll of judicial service, including threats and public scrutiny, and frames his decision to run as a form of civic duty akin to military service. He underscores his deep ties to Second Amendment rights and conservative legal principles, backed by endorsements from groups like Ohio Buckeye Firearms and Right to Life.
