March 2012 Primary Ratings Available Now!
Voting in Ohio's Democratic and Republican primaries has begun. As a Cuyahoga County voter, you can get information you need to vote for judges here, at Judge4Yourself.com. There are 10 contested races on the Cuyahoga County Democratic primary ballot, including a contest for Supreme Court, and 2 contested races on the Cuyahoga County Republican ballot–30 people in all seeking judicial office. You don't have to wonder, "Who are these people?" We've provided ratings of every candidate, and photos and short biographies of the candidates.
Judge4Yourself.com’s ratings are made by four cooperating bar associations, with the help of dozens of experienced lawyers—many who work in the courts every day. We interview the candidates, and review their answers to our questionnaire. We look at examples of the candidates’ writing, and get the input of lawyers who know their work.
Judge4Yourself.com’s ratings are non-partisan, and independent. We care only whether the particular candidates who are running this year will be competent, fair and trustworthy judges. So we focus on each candidate’s integrity, knowledge, experience, diligence, and community understanding, and on every candidate’s ability to be impartial, even-tempered and respectful to the people who must come to court.
Guessing can’t assure justice.
Before you vote, check the ratings here, at Judge4Yourself.com.
