Randy Brandt for Judge
I have known Judge Randy Brandt since he was a college student in my classes. He was very intelligent, perceptive and demonstrated maturity beyond his years.
Those qualities, plus his integrity and concern for others, are still a core part of Judge Brandt. He has an outstanding record as an attorney and as a judge. That record and the support he has from the professional legal community speaks for itself.
Our polarized nation genuinely needs leaders that have the demonstrated capability to listen and really hear what someone is saying. Those qualities that I’ve indicated, plus years of judicial experience and demonstrated ability, really qualify him to be on the judicial bench. His campaign demonstrates who he is. He absolutely refuses to resort to smear tactics, as many others do. We desperately need his integrity on the bench, probably now more than ever.
I would strongly urge you to vote for Judge Randy Brandt, based on his outstanding record and a lifetime of committed service within the legal profession.
