Ind. Courts - Focus on party slates for Marion County judicial primary

Updating this ILB entry for Feb. 17, Jon Murray of the Indianapolis Star today reports under the headline "Judicial primary is all-important: Changes to state law mean all who make it to general election will likely end up on bench." A side-bar to the story presents this information on candidates for judgeships:

The Marion County Republican and Democratic parties on Feb. 16 each picked a slate of eight candidates for the Superior Court and one to run for Circuit Court judge, which will be decided in the fall election.

There are 16 Superior Court judgeships up for election, split evenly between the parties, with the outcome likely determined by the primary.

Marion Circuit Court
Democrat: Louis Rosenberg.
Republican: James A. Joven.

Marion Superior Court
Democratic slate: Annie Christ-Garcia (I), David J. Dreyer (I), Garland E. Graves, Patrick L. McCarty (I), James B. Osborn, Tanya Walton Pratt (I), David Shaheed (I) and Gerald S. Zore (I).
