This election season has brought quite a discussion on bringing back judges who have been previously defeated. In case you’ve missed it, here’s the latest comment posted by Cindy:
“Give me a choice between two candidates and I might believe both to be good, yet I can vote for only one. A sitting judge can lose an election for a myriad of reasons. While some people may perceive losing an election to be like getting fired, that doesn’t make it so.”What do you think about the way we select judges in Sedgwick County? Do you favor elections? Or would you rather see judges chosen as nearly half the districts in Kansas do, by non-partisan merit selection?
Judges are welcome to comment, too. We’d like to hear from everyone.
