Skinder for Superior Court Judge

John Skinder, a candidate for Superior Court Judge, and I have been friends for more than 15 years.

During that time I have seen him in many circumstances, professionally and personally. He has never waivered; he is always the same. I know very few others that could be categorized as being as fair, and as just, as John is.

This is a man who, first and foremost, is honest. And I mean honest in everything he does.

And he is truly non-partisan. In this day and age it is easy to say someone is non-partisan, but it is hard to find someone who actually is. But I can attest to the fact that John sees things in the whole picture. He does not choose a side, he looks at all the facts and sees everyone’s point of view.

This is man full of integrity who will be an outstanding asset to the Thurston County Superior Court Bench.

Please join me in voting for John Skinder for Thurston County Superior Court Judge Position 7.
