Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Robert C. McClelland does not wear his commitment to justice and fairness on his sleeve, but his nine years on the bench speak it eloquently. At the start of the pandemic, the 67-year-old Shaker Heights Republican was one of the judges who stepped forward to conduct Saturday arraignments to reduce the County Jail population. One of five judges on the court’s mental health docket, McClelland has been a passionate advocate for improved mental health services at County Jail and for a structured diversion program for those whose main “crime” is not finding treatment for their mental health ills.
McClelland, first appointed in 2011 to an unexpired term by then-Gov. John Kasich, won election to complete that term in 2012 and was then elected to a full term in 2014. He is back on the ballot this year, seeking his final six-year term, since by 2026 he will be ineligible to run again under Ohio’s age limits for judges.
Challenging McClelland’s reelection is Strongsville Democrat Andrew J. Santoli, 41, who spent 13 years as an assistant Cuyahoga County prosecutor until going into private practice earlier this year.

- Kim Fawcett was 10 years old when her parents divorced. So when her mum's new partner Robert Stuart McClelland came into her life and lavished her with gifts, she could not have been happier.
Santoli has extensive experience as a criminal prosecutor in the county’s Major Trial Unit and warns rightly that far stronger local efforts are needed to reduce the County Jail population through bail reform and other means, which would help free up resources for other reforms, such as mental health and drug treatment diversion.
Both candidates are well-versed on the court system’s challenges. Santoli is smart and committed, but McClelland has the edge in judicial experience, and a proven record of excellence.
McClelland backs transparency in sentencing, saying data on individual judges are readily available. But what’s needed is his support, and the support of fellow judges, for aggregating data. To compare judges, it shouldn’t be necessary to trawl through files for each of the 34 General Division Common Pleas judges.
McClelland is rated “excellent” by all five Greater Cleveland bar associations in the local Judge4Yourelf ratings coalition; Santoli received “good” ratings from four and an “excellent” from one.
Voters in Cuyahoga County should reelect Robert C. McClelland to Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court in the Jan. 6 term on the Nov. 3 ballot. Early voting begins Oct. 6.

Robert Howard 'Bob' McClelland (born November 2, 1933) is a former broadcaster, journalist and political figure in British Columbia.[1] He represented Langley in the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia from 1972 to 1986 as a Social Credit member.
Early life and career[edit]
He was born and educated in Calgary, Alberta. McClelland moved to British Columbia as a driver for a furniture moving company. He served as alderman for Langley from 1969 to 1972. McClelland also worked as a broadcaster for radio station CHQM, as publisher of the Fraser Valley News Herald and as publisher of a monthly country and western music newspaper.
Provincial politics[edit]
In 1973, McClelland ran unsuccessfully for the leadership of the Social Credit party.[2] He later served in the provincial cabinet for Premier Bill Bennett as Minister of Health, as Minister of Energy Mines and Petroleum Resources, as Minister of Labour and as Minister of Industry and Small Business Development.[3]
McClelland earned the nickname 'Broadway Bob' from his opponents after a controversy arose in 1982 about a taxpayer-paid visit in 1980 to New York City that included tickets to a burlesque Broadway musical and costs for keeping a limousine chauffeur on standby for 10 hours at Plaza Hotel.[4]
The Top Hat Affair[edit]
On the night of Feb. 26, 1985, the day before he was transferred from Labour ministry to Industry and Small Business, McClelland phoned and paid $130 as a customer[3] to Top Hat Productions, a Victoria-based escort service that was under surveillance by police.[5] On Nov. 27, 1987, McClelland was called by the defence to testify in the criminal trial of Top Hat's operator, Arlie Blakely, who faced 19 counts of prostitution-related offences. McClelland testified that he had drank too much alcohol that night to retain memory of everything that happened.[6] The issue became known as The Top Hat Affair. McClelland retained his cabinet position until July 1986 after Bill Vander Zalm became the new leader of his political party. He did not seek re-election.
