Unfair attack ads

From Neil Wallace, Clarkston:

Who we elect as our judges matters. So how we elect them should matter, as well.

Judge Phyllis McMillen, Oakland County Circuit Judge, deserves your vote this election. And Judge McMillen needs your vote because of an untrue, unfair media attack on her funded by secret out-of-state money.

So far both The Detroit Free Press and The Spinal Column Newsweekly have reported on this, identifying the cover organizations in Virginia and Oregon who are fronting for this secret money.

Usually judicial campaigns are relatively quiet, particularly because the candidates cannot raise the money it takes to run television advertisements. So typically the folks who are voting for judges are those that have taken the time to really learn about the candidates. I’ve done that research so I know the attacks on Judge Phyllis McMillen are as wrong as they are vicious.

The only way our votes mean more than this out-of-state money is if we vote to elect Judge Phyllis McMillen.
