POWER TO THE

PEOPLE

THE BARBERTON ACCOUNTABILITY PARTNERSHIP

is a group of concerned citizens united in our cause of SUPPORTING GOOD GOVERNMENT and DEMANDING ACCOUNTABILITY from the public officials who work for Magic City voters.

We want voters to get a say on REFORM for the Law Department and RECALL elections for politicians who fail us.

Demand better for barberton.

  • Mayor Bill judge enjoys some candid moments during a podcast with co-host Jack Hornack in 2023, as well as a tremendous amount of information about the city and all the progress underway under his steady leadership.

    MAYOR JUDGE DELIVERED.

    Fourteen years of steady progress under former Mayor Bill Judge made Barberton better by every objective measure.

    PROGRESS
  • Purple, slightly out of focus cutouts of humans in some form of harmony connect with each other through their shared hands and seem to deliver a group think or hive mind effect to the viewer. They seem to scream purple shame: my god is Council lame.

    MAYORAL COUP D'ÉTAT ATTEMPT

    Council coup plotters voted for the last resort first in a shameless sneak attack that would make many a strongman blush.

    COUP
  • Duotone green and purple hundreds featuring Benjamin Franklin's face are spread about the background of this funko image with jazzy purple styling creeping in from the corners.

    SICKENING WASTE ABOUNDS.

    Magic City taxpayers are the biggest losers of petty political games and costly witch hunts perpetuated by incompetent, self-important hacks who don’t know what they don’t know.

    WASTE
  • A bronze statue of Ohio Columbus Barber, famed industrialist "Match King" and founder of the City of Barberton in Southwest Summit County, Ohio, holds a vibrant bunch of bright fuscia mums while his moustached mouth is covered with duct tape.

    MUMS THE WORD?! NOT OKAY.

    Nearly 6 months after the coup without a cause, we’re STILL in the dark on why Council wasted $100K to thwart the will of the people.

    MUMS THE WORD
  • A vivid purple local marker sits atop a blue-and-white street grid, which fades out of focus as the foreground gives way to the blurrier background.

    RECALCULATING . . .

    3-step directions to get us back on track to safe, reliable, & accountable local government:

    1) REFORM.

    2) RECALL.

    3) REPLACE.

    ROADMAP
  • Lady justice peeks out, barely noticeably, from beneath her blindfold – leaving one to wonder whether or not this will affect the all-important scales of justice that she holds against a charcoal / dark background.

    BYE BYE BLOAT

    Reforming our Law Department run amok will replace dirty politics with prudent public service, trade excess for efficiency, & quickly quelch corruption.

    REFORM PROPOSAL
  • The blurred and somehow irritating face of a political clown, presumably an officeholder joker, snickers perniciously at one of the taxpayers they are robbing blind with a sickening sense of self delight. This black-and-white graphic haunts.

    UNACCEPTABLE UNDERMINING

    When politicians fail to do their job, ignore the rules, make a mockery of democracy, embarrass our community, ignore voters, & halt our progress, we have but one recourse . . .

    RECALL ELECTIONS
  • Nailed into a background of grey, textured wood, a slightly out-of-focus WANTED poster curls at the edges and pronounces Law Director LIsa Miller the ringleader of the "City Hall Six" who voted to oust Mayo Judge for no reason; Western vibes abound.

    BARBERTON BANDITS: AT-LARGE AND OTHERWISE

    The infamous “City Hall Six” are WANTED for crimes against democracy and highway robbery of voters.

    They’ll be brought to justice by standing for RECALL ELECTIONS before a jury of their peers.

    MOST WANTED

WE WANT TO GIVE THE VOTERS A SAY.

WE’RE collecting signatures from barberton citizens to:

1) RECALL THE RADICALS IN ELECTIVE OFFICE WHO ARE failing us ON ALL LEVELS AND wasting MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF OUR resources;

2) DEMAND REFORM NOW for A BROKEN, BLOATED BUREAUCRACY RUN AMOK AND A LAW DEPARTMENT THAT’S SPENDING OUR TAX DOLLARS LIKE MONOPOLY MONEY; AND

3) REPLACE THE DUDS NEXT YEAR With commonsense leaders WHO WON’T UNDERMINE VOTERS, CURTAIL DEMOCRACY, AND BLEED COFFERS DRY.

WE FIND FIND THE JOB PERFORMANCE OF CURRENT CITY OFFICIALS TO BE

UNACCEPTABLE.

we’re all about ACCOUNTABILITY.

WE AREN’T AFRAID TO REMIND LOCAL OFFICIALS That they work for US AND WE HAVEN’T FORGOTTEN IT.
