Ind. Courts - "Candidates for new Vigo court bring experience to election"

Deb McKee of the Terre Haute Tribune Star reports today in a story that begins::

The new Vigo County Superior Court Division 6 presents a unique opportunity for judicial candidates Michael Lewis and R. Steven Johnson.

Whichever Democratic candidate is chosen in the primary will face James Walker in the general election to determine who will preside over a court still in its infancy.

The new court was established through legislation in the Indiana General Assembly last year and began processing cases in January. Walker (R) was appointed by Mitch Daniels to preside as the first judge of Division 6.

This ILB entry from last Wednesday quoted from a WTWO story that concluded: "Judge Eldred worked for almost seven years to get the county`s newest court that was just added this past January."
