THANK YOU FOR THE INFORMATION
Thanks got identifying whom to vote for.
There are 3 existing judges on the ballot.
Should we vote to retain them or not?
Really appreciate ALL you do?
Thanks for reaching out about the judicial races. The Montana Family Foundation only makes a recommendation in one race for Supreme Court — seat #3. In the other races, we are not able to make any recommendation.
Just FYI Mike Mcgrath ran was a member of the Democratic Party and Jim Shea was appointed by a Democratic governor. They are both on the ballot to “retain office.” It is hard to find out what these judges natural bias may be!
Thanks for your hard work. I remember a while back you guys had the surveys scanned in so we could read the responses from the candidates that participated, I found that very helpful the last time around. Any chance you could bring that feature back in the future? (Too late for this time I know sorry I meant to write!)
