I'm disappointed to have Lorie S. Gildea I wanted her out, quite frankly mostly because she was Pawlenty assigned.

Piper didn't strike me as as strong a candidate as a couple others.

Judges can be so hard to get meaningful info about. I wish they had to publish some of the court records that would help shed light on how they carry out their jobs. Most people I know don't bother voting for them cause they have no clue who they even are.

Yes, I started out by striking off my list the ones who listed their church affiliations. I don't know for sure they're dangerous, but choosing to mention that is about the only warning I'm likely to get.
