Governor Polis appointed a judge who should not be on the bench. He can make mistakes and voters can give him another chance to appoint someone more suitable to the bench.

Democrats do make mistakes once in awhile.

The judge I’m voting to release from a non suitable career may find a better fit in a different profession.

This is just an encouragement to look a bit further than simply who made the appointment.
