The Cleveland Plain Dealer writes:
"Russo has thoughtful ideas about curbing
campaign contributor's potential influence on
the court's decision-making. His ability and
temperament leave little doubt that he would be
a good justice."

Judge Russo attended the Jefferson County
Democratic Picnic in Stratton, Ohio on Sunday,
July 27, 2008. The event, held alongside the
Ohio River, was attended by Democrats from
Stratton to Mount Pleasant. Democratic County
Chair John Abdalla introduced Judge Russo to the
crowd as they gathered to enjoy the excellent
food provided by Rock’s Barbecue. Local
Democrats met with Judge Russo and told him
about their plans to present his materials at
their county fair and throughout Jefferson
County. “The setting couldn’t have been more
beautiful, the people more generous, or barbecue
better tasting then we had in Jefferson County.
I truly enjoyed the visit.”
On July 24, 2007
Judge Russo attended a salute to
Parma Democratic volunteers at the American
Legion Hall. Judge Russo paid tribute to the
late Parma Democratic City Leader, Chuck Sebes,
“nine years ago, Chuck Sebes stood up and
nominated me for Democratic Candidate for
Cuyahoga County Judge. Eight years, 7,000
criminal and civil cases, and 7 death penalty
cases later, I now am the Democratic Candidate
for the Ohio Supreme Court. He gave me my start,
and I will never forget him.” Judge Russo was
introduced to the crowd by Parma Democratic City
Leader Chris Phelps. Judge Russo pointed out
that for the first time in 38 years; all seven
members of the Ohio Supreme Court are
Republicans. He said, “Justice requires balance.
And despite the fact that this is a statewide
race, I will never forget my friends in Parma
who helped me get elected in the beginning, and
will bring this victory home to us in the end.”
