CLEVELANDURBANNEWS.COM-CLEVELAND, Ohio - Tickets to hear former Democratic president Barack Obama, who will speak at a campaign event for Ohio Democratic gubernatorial nominee Richard Cordray on Thursday, September 13, 2018 at the Cleveland Metropolitan School District East Professional Center Gymnasium at 1349 E. 79th St. and Superior Avenue in Ward 7 in Cleveland (The old East High School), are all gone, organizers said Tuesday.

Though the event is free and open-to-the public, tickets were distributed at various campaign for organizing offices throughout Northeast Ohio, and elsewhere.

Doors open at 5 pm and Cordray and his lieutenant governor running mate, Betty Sutton, a former Ohio congresswoman, are among the speakers.

 Obama is slated to speak at 7 pm.

 According to a Cordray campaign press release, Obama will also be campaigning in Cleveland for Democratic U.S. Sen Sherrod Brown of Cleveland, a front-runner in his race against Republican congressman Jim Renacci, and for the Democrats running in statewide elections this year, including for auditor, attorney general and secretary of state.

And he will, no doubt, address his signature universal heathcare initiative at the campaign rally in Cleveland on Thursday, a rally conveniently set in the heart of the impoverished city's Black community, and as the Black vote has become increasingly crucial in recent years in close congressional and senate races nationwide, and in some gubernatorial elections.

"President Obama will discuss what is at stake for Ohioans in 2018, highlighting the need for Ohio's governor to expand economic opportunity to more Ohioans and protect their families' access to quality affordable health care," Cordray campaign press spokesman Mike Gwin told Clevelandurbannews.com and Kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com, Ohio's most read Black digital newspaper and Black blog.

 Black Democratic operatives of Ohio agree that Blacks are the swing vote.

"The African-American vote in Ohio is often the difference between winning and losing for a candidate in a close race," said Charles E. Bibb Sr,. a former East Cleveland councilman and head of the Carnegie Roundtable of Cleveland. 
A former Ohio attorney general and state treasurer, Cordray is a former Obama administration official and was the director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and he in a heated race for governor against Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, a former U.S. senator and the Republican nominee for governor.

In addition to Cordray and Sutton, the statewide ticket includes former U.S. district attorney Steve Dettelbach of greater Cleveland for attorney general, former congressman Zack Space for auditor of state, state Rep. Kathleen Clyde (D-75) for secretary of state, attorney Rob Richardson for state treasurer, and Judges Melody Stewart and Michael P. Donnelly for open seats on the all-Republican and all-White seven-member Ohio Supreme Court.

Donnelly is a Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas judge.

 Stewart, an 8th District Appeals Court judge, and Richardson are the only Blacks running statewide on the Democratic ticket.

The 8th District Court of Appeals serves Cuyahoga County, a Democratic stronghold and the second largest of 88 counties statewide. The county is roughly 29 percent Black, and includes the largely Black major metropolitan city of Cleveland, which is led by Mayor Frank Jackson, a Black Democrat,

 Congresswomen Marcia L Fudge and Marcy Kaptur, whose congressional districts include Cleveland, are also running for reelection as Democrats, but without any serious opponents, and there are a host of other Democratic congressional candidates seeking office in Ohio as the Nov. 6 general election nears.

Fudge is one of two Blacks in congress from Ohio, the other of whom is Congresswoman Joyce Beatty of Columbus, who is also up for reelection.

The Dems have not won the governor's office since Ted Strickland in 2006, and he was ousted in 2010 by Gov. John Kasich, the term-limited Republican who lost a bid for the nomination for president in 2016.

Ohio Supreme Court strips chief Cuyahoga County judge of power: Chief and unfair Cuyahoga County Judge John Russo loses authority-Part 2 of a multi-part series on Cuyahoga County public corruption: New Ohio law on seeking possible removal of a municipal court judge in a case for bias or conflict via the filing of an affidavit of prejudice takes authority to decide from chief Cuyahoga County Presiding and Administrative Judge John Russo, other chief common pleas judges in Ohio, and hands it to the chief justice of the Ohio Supreme Court, who also determines affidavits of prejudice filed against common pleas, probate, juvenile, domestic relations, and state appellate court judges....Most affidavits of prejudice are denied regardless of the merits and some judges complained of will retaliate, data show... Community activists, led by Cleveland activist Kathy Wray Coleman of the Imperial Women Coalition, lobbied the Cleveland NAACP for support and asked state legislators via state Rep Bill Patmon (D-10) of Cleveland to change the law but wanted a panel of judges and others to decide when a judge in Ohio is disqualified from hearing a case for bias or conflict....Coleman says she has since been further harassed by Chief Cuyahoga County Judge John Russo, who is White and leads a racist and sexist common pleas court fueled with corruption, malicious prosecutions, excessive criminal bonds, ineffective assistance of counsel to poor and Black defendants, and the mass incarceration of the Black community....By www.clevelandurbannews.com and www.kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com, Ohio's most read digital Black newspapers....This is part 2 of a multi-part series on Cuyahoga County public corruption
