Ind. Courts - More judgeship announcements

The Terre Haute Tribune-Star reports:

James R. Walker, appointed last year to a one-year term as a superior court judge, announced Monday he has filed as a Republican candidate for the May Primary for judge of the new Vigo County Superior Court Division 6.

Gov. Mitch Daniels appointed Walker in November 2005 as judge of the new court for a term that began Jan. 1 and expires Dec. 31. Walker is now seeking his first full elected six-year term in that office. He filed for the office Friday.

In another story the Tribune Star reports:
Vigo County’s Democratic Party will have a race in the May primary to select a party candidate as judge for the new Vigo County Superior Court Division 6.

R. Steven Johnson, 61, and Michael J. Lewis, 42, each filed as Democrat candidates with the Indiana Secretary of State’s office last month.
