| Most important issue: | Minnesota's judicial system faces the challenge of maintaining its reputation for competence, impartiality, and integrity in light of changing circumstances surrounding how judges are selected and elected. A Supreme Court justice must have experience, competence, integrity and a commitment to fairness. I believe my record as a lifelong Minnesotan, private attorney, Special Assistant Attorney General, Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals and Supreme Court justice demonstrates that I have these qualities. I pledge to work hard to preserve a fair, impartial and accessible judiciary that promotes respect for the law and the rights of all Minnesotans. | |
