Republicans Sweep Lehigh County Judge Race

The three Republicans running for Lehigh County judge have won. Tom Caffrey (33,716) was the lead vote getter, followed by Tom Capehart (31,563 votes) and Dave Ritter (31,219 votes). My favorite candidate, Maraleen Shields, finished fifth with 28,469 votes.

  1. Expect millions of dollars in legal bills for the region over the coming years. The legal side of democracy has become the go to battle ground for both parties when they have a temper tantrum because they did not get their way.

  3. All three of the Republican candidates for Common Pleas judge in Lehigh County are well-qualified, capable, honorable lawyers. The Democrats were too, but elected judges in an off-year election are largely flotsam in a wave of national sentiment.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
