Mike O'Malley

--FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE-- Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael C. O'Malley Secures Definitive Victory Cleveland, Ohio, March 19, 2024 - With 253 precincts reporting, a decisive win for Michael C. O'Malley in the Democratic Primary contest for Country Prosecutor. O’Malley proved victorious over radical progressive Matthew Ahn. O'Malley's triumph reaffirms the community's trust in his proven leadership and utterly rejects the challenger’s unfounded claims. Since assuming office in January 2017, Prosecutor O'Malley has spearheaded initiatives to enhance community safety and equity in the justice system. Key among O'Malley's achievements is the establishment of the Adult Diversion Center and the Intervention Center for Juveniles. His unwavering commitment to evidence-based policies exemplifies his balanced approach. O’Malley’s tenure earned him endorsements from over 50 County Democratic leaders and over 20 labor unions. In expressing gratitude for his re-election, O'Malley recognizes the support of Cuyahoga County's Democratic voters and community stakeholders: "I am grateful for the continued confidence shown by my fellow Democrats. Our campaign, grounded in county-specific data and facts, rang true with voters who value experience and proven solutions over absurd hypotheticals. I extend my appreciation to Democratic leaders, labor unions, business owners, and everyday residents who share a commitment to public safety and justice." O'Malley reiterates his dedication to prioritizing victims' voices and upholding accountability: "Under my leadership, victims' voices will remain central to our pursuit of justice. I am resolute in running the Prosecutor's Office in a manner that ensures public safety and serves the interests of all Cuyahoga County residents." Prosecutor Michael C. O'Malley emphasizes that the real winners are the people of Cuyahoga County, who defeated out-of-state radical interests from meddling in our local justice system; campaign finance reports demonstrate an alarming 70% of Ahn's money came from outside of Ohio.

This is truly #OMalleysMandate

When it comes to the challenger in this race, listen to his own words and read the press: "...he has almost no courtroom experience, and no management experience other than, he says, being in charge of six people in the federal public defender’s office during the pandemic. It would be almost frightening to put someone with paper-thin experience like that in charge of a large, complicated and important office." - @ThePlainDealer & @clevelanddotcom Be sure to cast your #vote for O'Malley this coming Tuesday, March 19th.

In 2019, an unfamiliar face, Chesa Boudin, campaigned for San Francisco DA (County Prosecutor) with promises of innovative approaches to the criminal justice system. By 2022, his data-driven experiments failed, resulting in a surge in crime that became unmanageable. Fueled by local Democrats (80% of recall funders were SF voters), Boudin was recalled. The repercussions of his failed policies still haunt SF. Last week, SF voters overwhelmingly approved a set of proposed fixes brought to the ballot by the Mayor, including measures to bolster police powers and address the rampant crime issues. Cuyahoga must re-elect Michael C. O'Malley - we can't afford what follows Matthew Ahn's failed experiments agenda. #MichaelOMalley #Earnedtrust #Experiencematters
