Canady and Polston have a pretty good track record. Labarga not so much.

FWIW there has never been a Justice not retained as best I recall.

There has not. A good concerted effort was made at it last time I believe.

When there is a Republican governor I always vote no. It can be hard to tell if they are good or bad and I'd rather kick them all out and have the governor appoint new ones.

I take it a step further and vote no each and every time for each and every judge - unless my research shows a "positive" impact they have made.

I do that for most judges unless I have specific recommendations from someone I trust. So usual it's no.

+1 on Canady and Polston. Both excellent.

Labarga is certainly not on our side.  He doesn't like the peasants to exercise their right to open carry.

For the hive in the following counties:

Charlotte, Collier, DeSoto, Glades, Hardee, Hendry, Highlands, Hillsborough, Lee, Manatee, Pasco, Pinellas, Polk, Sarasota (Judicial Circuits: 6th, 10th, 12th, 13th and 20th)

On the ballot, the following 3 Florida Supreme Court Justices are clearly supporters of the 2A:

Hon. Charles T Canady, a truly brilliant judge
Hon. Ricky L. Polston
Hon. Jorge Labarga

Vote "YES" for their retention.


Also vote "YES" to retain ALL Judges in the SECOND DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL . While no Second Amendment info is available on them individually, they are collectively a fairly conservative bench whose decisions appear to support the 2A.
