OH-14: Ex-Ohio Supreme Court Justice Bill O'Neill (D) joins race for district held by GOP U.S. Rep. David Joyce

Columbus, Ohio – Former Ohio Supreme Court Justice Bill O’Neill has announced plans to run for the northeast Ohio congressional seat held by Republican U.S. Rep. David Joyce.

The 78-year-old Democrat said Wednesday he is coming out of retirement because he can't “sit idly by as my government falls apart.”

“Reasonably priced health care is out of reach for a majority of Americans, armed thugs with masks masquerading as police officers are openly violating the U.S. Constitution, and environmental protection is a thing of the past,” O'Neill said in a statement provided to The Associated Press.

He said Joyce is “a nice guy” but he needs to answer for his votes in favor of President Donald Trump’ s agenda and the actions of billionaire Elon Musk, who ran the president’s Department of Government Efficiency initiative.
