After reviewing the respected website Judge4Yourself.com, it seems a record number of judicial candidates from both political parties refused to be interviewed by the six cooperating bar associations without a reasonable excuse.
A candidate who declines to be transparent about their qualifications and to address and defend them is, by definition, unsuited to hold public office.
I urge you to join me in refusing to vote for anyone who didn’t participate in this important activity, which is designed to educate us about who will be given the power to make decisions affecting our lives.
