Election ~ Judge Candidates

Yesterday I talked about Judge Retentions, but when a seat on the courts is vacated, we have a regular election for judges. If you vote straight party, and want it to apply to judge candidates, you don't need to do anything else. If you want to split your ticket, you need to fill in the ovals for as many candidates as you want but within the limit set. You can write in candidates, too.

If you want to know more about these candidates, I encourage you to look them up on  https://ballotpedia.org (though some aren't listed or have very little information). Here are their names and parties.

SUPERIOR COURT (vote for no more than 2)

Amanda Green-Hawkins, Democrat
Daniel D. McCafferty, Democrat (who showed absolutely no wisdom or prudence when he put DOZENS of ugly campaign posters all over the ground in a public park in my neighborhood ~ I'm guessing he didn't do that in his own neighborhood.)
Megan McCarthy King, Republican
Christylee Peck, Republican

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS (vote for not more than 3)

Melissa Schwartz Sterling, Democrat
Virgil B Walker, Democrat
Henry S. Hilles, III, Democrat
Matthew Hovey, Republican
Gregg Richman, Republican
Robert A. Zigmund, Republican
