I am surprised at the CAGOP voter material. I'm not voting completely their way.
I'm still trying to figure out the judicial votes. I've been on the court info site, but I couldn't find out anything about them to let me know how to vote. Any ideas? I've got 2 assoc. of Supreme Court, and 12 Court of Appeal Appellate District 4, Divisions 1-3.
I know that the California Republican Assembly has come out against Supreme Kennard. I think NormsRevenge might have looked into this more or have some links... maybe?
NewzJunkey also started a thread and collected some info but I haven't sifted through it yet:

I usually don't get around to digging into judges until the last couple days. (My time is running out! lol)
this might help.....
CALIFORNIA REPUBLICAN LAWYERS MAKE JUDICIAL RECOMMENDATIONS.
Dear Fellow Republican:
Every year Republican voters complain about the lack of information regarding Judges appearing on their ballots. In an attempt to provide Republican voters with the information they need, the California Republican Lawyers Association have prepared a list of Justices that we recommend.
It is important to point out that in preparing this list we have researched judicial opinions, considered party registration, considered what Governor appointed each Justice, the length of service and spoke to lawyers who have practiced before them. We considered all of these factors in preparing our recommendations. No one factor was dispositive. Furthermore, certain Justices do not appear on our list because their time on the Supreme Court or Court of Appeals has been too brief.
The following list is the result of this research. To learn more about the California Republican Lawyers Association you can visit our website at www.californiarepublicanlawyers.org.
