Colorado has a system whereby the voters decide, "Shall Judge ________ be retained in office? Yes No.
In 1988, the Legislature created a commission to rate judges. As part of my effort to be an informed voter, I visited their web site.
Of all the judges in Colorado, they recommended retaining all but ONE!
Reading between the lines on each Judge's evaluation, I found reasons not to retain five out of nineteen that were on my ballot. With better information, the No vote total would be higher. As tempting as it is, voting No on all of them is irresponsible. Good people need to be recognized.

Lawyers reporting on lawyers... what do you expect? Honesty??? Not in our lifetimes!
Old NFO You work with what you have. There is a private group called CleartheBench but they don't cover much more than the State Supreme Court.
