To the Editor,
Keep Judge McCarthy!
Herman Carson has no experience as common pleas judge! Carson states he has 22 years experience as an acting (stand in) Judge in his campaign handouts. This sounds impressive, but it doesn’t tell the whole story. A fill-in judge at municipal court is actually an attorney acting as a judge for the day in the elected judge’s absence. He stands in for the judge if needed — it’s not a regular duty, it’s not an every-day, every-week or an every-month occurrence. Plus, he is not the only one; there were at least two to three others.
Retain Judge George P. McCarthy as our Athens County common pleas judge!
