What a nice judge. Don't forget to vote everyone.
South Carolina Circuit Court judges (along with many other kinds of judges) are elected by the General Assembly (state legislature), not directly by the voters of the state. Some judges are appointed by various commissions and councils. None are directly voted on by the citizens.
I mean I think the intention was the votes go to people who will put competent judges in place rather than for hire judges not so much actually vote for the judges themselves.
I’d love a few words with the intellectual giant that downvoted you, but we all know how cowards are.
Who’s the judge so we can shame them. They need to be held as guilty as the pieces of shit they let off.
'bout to vote myself off of this friggin' island. It sucks so bad.
I'm leaving it as soon as I'm able. Fuck it in the US
Is he affiliated with democrats or republicans?
