ONE four-year term if anyone has any brains in Colorado^*.

I believe your wrong about Patterson being an elected official.

COLORADO JUDICIAL BRANCH

Facts

• There are 22 Judicial Districts within the State of Colorado, established by the State Legislature in 1963 and last revised in 1975.
Changes in District boundaries require a two-thirds vote of each house of the Legislature.

• As of July 1, 2001, the Colorado Judicial Branch has a total of 249 Judges and Justices: 7 Supreme Court Justices, 16 Court of Appeals Judges, 125 District Court Judges, and 118 County Court Judges.

This excludes Denver County Court Judges (17), who are appointed by the Mayor of Denver.
(District Judgeships are being added yearly according to statute.)

BS Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado, Sociology (1968)

There's the problem, every Sociology prof of that era that I ever met was a left wing looney. It tended to rub off on their students. Or more properly the students self selected. Those who couldn't stand the left wing loonies, changed majors, what was left were a bunch of nearly certifiable folks, the type that had no problem believing three physically and/or logically impossible things...before breakfast.
