COLUMBUS: Judicial candidates in Ohio now will be permitted to advertise their political party during general election campaigns.
The Ohio Supreme Court made the change today in adopting a new code of conduct for Ohio judges, which takes effect March 1.
Since 1995, judicial candidates have been prohibited from directly promoting their party affiliation in general elections. But the court hasn't enforced the rule since 2004 because of a challenge from a Supreme Court candidate.
Ohio Supreme Court assistant administrator Rick Dove says the rule is being changed because candidates were finding ways around it. Plus, he says the court wanted to make the relationship between judicial candidates and political parties more transparent.
