As most know, I abhor election season because most campaigns just stink ... they really do.
But, what about candidates for any judicial office. What to do? I have taken the position to only do podcasts with any local candidate because I can really sit and talk with each one for an extended period of time. But I am still left with judicial candidates. Again, what to do?
It's tricky because running for a judge's seat requires restraint on what can be said. After all, they cannot comment on a potential case (even a type of case) which may tip their hand because a judge is to rule on the law as it is written and the evidence as presented. Period.
With all of that stated, Leon County Judge Seat 4 candidate Robert Churchill reached out to the show and asked to come on to talk about his desire to serve on the bench. The radio show was not an option, but because he asked, a podcast made sense.
