Judge John Eklund - Eleventh District Court of Appeals

03/22/2024

"The 2024 Primary election is over, and I have lots to be thankful for.

First, to the Republican voters in the 11th Ohio Appellate District (Ashtabula, Geauga, Lake, Portage and Trumbull Counties). Thank you for your overwhelming show of support for my being your nominee to run for re-election to the Court of Appeals this fall. Knowing you have confidence in me to carry through on our promise to assure "liberty and justice for all" is humbling. I will strive to do so "with malice toward none" and with a sense of decency, integrity and responsibility.

Second, to Shelly Pratt. She ran a principled campaign against an incumbent and, by the effort, she delivered to the voters a message none of us should ever forget: In America, and especially in American politics, there are no entitlements. We earn what we get, we earn opportunities to serve the people, and we must earn them every day.

To the local Republican Parties in the 11th District, and especially their volunteers, all of whom did what they saw as their duty to devote resources where they thought they would be most effectively deployed to advance the cause of freedom in a system of ordered liberty.

To the local Republican Womens' Clubs, each of which "doubled down" on all of the above.

And, finally to my entire family, without whom I would not even be typing this.

God bless you all, and let's win in November!"

John Eklund
Appellate Judge, Eleventh District Court of Appeals

The Harpersfield Volunteer Fire Department’s Fish Fry is a late winter/early spring mainstay tradition in Ashtabula County. I was there and spoke with scores of great Americans from Ashtabula and surrounding Counties. Here I am with the very special HVFD members who do all the hard work to serve hundreds of fellow citizens each Friday night. We salute you ALL!
