Judge Terri Jamison, candidate for Ohio Supreme Court
Carolyn Harding with Judge Terri Jamison, candidate for the Ohio Supreme Court.\nJudge Terri Jamison began her work history in social work with the West Virginia Department of Welfare. She became a trailblazer when she was one of few women to join the United Mine Workers of America. She moved to Columbus, Ohio when mass layoffs shut the mines down.\nAs a single parent, she worked a variety of jobs before becoming a small business owner for more than 16 years. She became a nontraditional student at Columbus State Community College, ultimately graduating cum laude from Franklin University with a Bachelor of Science degree. She enrolled in Capital University Law School where she obtained her juris doctor degree.\nAs an attorney, she stood beside families in crisis, not corporations, representing them in various courts around Ohio and in U. S. District Court, in administrative hearings, and later being hired to preside over unemployment compensation\nclaims.\nShe comes to this campaign with more than a decade as a judge, having served on the Franklin County Court Domestic Relations and Juvenile Branch, and now on the Court of Appeals, Tenth District.\nJudge Jamison has often been quoted, \u201cwhen the law is not on your side, you deserve to be heard, treated with dignity and respect.\u201d\nWelcome to GrassRoot Ohio.\nWhen everyday folk go to the polls, most voters have an idea of who the candidates are, what party they represent, and if they are engaged, they have some idea of the candidates\u2019 platforms.\nBut even engaged voters, get a bit overwhelmed when it comes to judges. There are usually many judges on the ballot - and very few opportunities to hear what each candidate hopes to bring to the table.\nOhio early voting started Feb 21 and primary election day is March 19, and my hope is that each voter does their own due diligence for all the candidates on their ballot, and this November- All Ohioans will vote for the open seat on the Ohio Supreme Court.\nwww.votejudgejamison.com\nGrassRoot Ohio - Conversations with everyday people working on important issues, here in Columbus and all around Ohio.\nEvery Friday 5:00pm, EST on 94.1FM & streaming worldwide @ WGRN.org,\nSundays at 2:00pm EST on 92.7/98.3 FM and streams @ WCRSFM.org, and\nSundays at 4:00pm EST, at 107.1 FM, Wheeling/Moundsville WV on WEJP-LP FM.\nContact Us if you would like GrassRoot Ohio on your local LP-FM community radio station.\nFace Book: www.facebook.com/GrassRootOhio/\nInstagram: www.instagram.com/grassroot_ohio/\nAll shows/podcasts archived at SoundCloud! @user-42674753\nApple Podcast: podcasts.apple.com/.../grassroot-ohio/id1522559085\nYouTube: www.youtube.com/channel/UCAX2t1Z7_qae803BzDF4PtQ/\nIntro and Exit music for GrassRoot Ohio is "Resilient" by Rising Appalachia: youtu.be/tx17RvPMaQ8\nThere's a time to listen and learn, a time to organize and strategize, And a time to Stand Up/ Fight Back!
