Ind. Courts - Evansville editorial endorses all 3 candidates for one Superior court judgeship
From today's editorial in the Evansville Courier & Press:
Three Evansville lawyers, each with experience in a specific area of law, are candidates in a nonpartisan election race for Superior Court judge. The winner will fill the seat being vacated on the seven-judge court by Judge Scott Bowers, who is retiring.The candidates are Vanderburgh Circuit Court Magistrate David D. Kiely, 45; Vanderburgh Superior Court Magistrate Jill R. Marcrum, 47; and Vanderburgh Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Michael Perry, 46.
After interviewing all of the candidates and studying their records and their answers to questions, we have come to the conclusion that each of the three has strengths that commend each to this office. Kiely and Marcrum, as magistrates, have extensive experience on the bench, while Perry has experience in prosecuting criminal cases before the bench.
There is no weak choice in this race. * * *
We believe that each of these candidates has something positive to offer to Superior Court. Therefore, we have no endorsement, other than for all three.
