Is there a good place to find ratings on non-partisan candidates for circuit court judges, etc?
It's a bunch of names I never heard of.

(18,402 posts)Usually rate judicial candidates. Well qualified, qualified, or not qualified. (Or a similar system). These are the lawyers who have stood in the judges courtrooms.
I dont know where you are, so I cant help further than that. Google to find.

(202,965 posts)I knew nothing about either of them, so I did a search for their names and found profiles and quotes from both of them. For the guy, I found quotes boasting about having voted for and supported both Ronald Reagan and a long time Republican congressman. For the female candidate I learned that she supports a county-wide program that provides treatment rather than incarceration for those with substance abuse problems which I know has helped many get and stay sober. I voted for her.
