Terry Free is a Republican reform candidate focused on putting America First in politics, ending Property Tax on occupied residential property, defending family sovereignty and the bodily integrity of children, responsible deployment of AI, taxation of data centers, and Cannabis legalization expansion.

Terry Free, 39 years young, a lifetime Ohioan, born in Dayton, currently has lived in Beavercreek for the last thirteen years with his wife Raven and their two children. Terry has a strong history of political activism and advocacy including composing local law and coordinating petitioning drives and nearly a year of public Christian ministry promoting Preterism.

Terry is an entrepreneur in clothing sales, Crypto-currency, and jewelry.
  • To me, “America First” means that the American People, and our Country as a corporate enterprise, must always remain the foundation of our political motivations and the apex of our priorities while protecting our foundational laws and culture of Liberty under God.

    I believe enforcing immigration laws and securing our state and national borders are vital to protecting our People, laws, and culture. I support ICE deporting all illegal immigrants and want Ohio police to assist.

    I will likewise always put Ohioans First! Recently, AI Data centers want to set up shop in Ohio and they should pay taxes. I will fight for Ohioans to have consistent and affordable access to vital electricity and clean water!
  • I fight for the prosperity and dignity of Ohioans and protect them! I will empower Ohioans to have a Home without perpetual servitude and rent by seeking to pass legislation which makes all occupied residential properties exempt from property tax while shifting this revenue into sales and income tax. I will protect Parent's right to affirm the sex of their child! I will defend the bodily integrity of children from mutilation by so called “Trans” procedures and the medically useless and sexually destructive routine “Circumcision” of their genitals; Foreskin is the clitoris of men and everyone deserves to be whole and make consenting choices. I encourage survivors of male genital mutilation to research Foreskin Restoration technique
  • I believe that the Republican party must embrace the justified re-legalization of Cannabis as this plant and its industry is vital to medical patients and crucial to having a robust economy founded in strong agricultural production including Hemp for industrial purposes and Cannabis flower to promote health and also safer recreational industries similar to tobacco and alcohol. I will protect and expand Cannabis legalization and its industry to promote small businesses by creating new cultivation licenses for small scale production home cultivation operations to create many jobs and additional revenue for Ohioans. I will defend and expand Home-Grow by making plant limits only apply to Cannabis plants in Flowering Stage.
Topics of public policy and law which I'm personally passionate about and have effected me directly include protecting vulnerable persons such as children, Seniors and others, Property Tax reform, promoting personal medical sovereignty over medical choices for self and family, defending bodily integrity against genital mutilation, empowerment of small businesses, guarding our civil rights against government overreach, Cannabis legalization and protecting Homeschool and school choice.
My passion for such issues and more is driven by my love for my fellow man, my faith that where God is there is liberty, and my earnest desire to promote the prosperity and dignity of all people and to defend the vulnerable persons among us.
Many of my fellow citizens have signed my candidacy petition and my support base is growing as the election trail continues on!
Remember to vote in the Ohio Primaries on May 5th, 2026, and then the General Election on November, 3, 2026!
