Washington State
The best judiciary BIG money can buy
category Washington State
John Groen and Stephen Johnson have together raised $1.5 million as of today for their Supreme Court races, mainly from the Building Industry of Washington and a Virginia-based PAC called Americans Tired of Lawsuit Abuse. (Three times as much as their competitors!) They're using the money for lots of nasty attack ads.
Read all about all of the candidates at the non-partisan website VotingForJudges.org - you'll find out what their positions are, where there financial support is coming from and how they're being rated by the Bar Association and local newspapers. Then chose the incumbents: Susan Owens, Gerry Alexander and Tom Chambers. Oh, and Joel Penoyer for Court of Appeals.
