Ind. Courts - "Seated Porter County judges raise big bucks"
Bob Kasarda reports today in a NWI Times story that begins:
VALPARAISO | The two incumbent judges seeking re-election have raised far more money than their challengers, with a large share of their contributions coming from local attorneys, according to the latest campaign finance forms.Porter Superior Judge Roger Bradford, a Republican seeking a fifth term, topped the list, raising $30,580 since April, which he added to the $8,090 he already had on hand.
His Democratic opponent, William Suarez, reported raising $3,557 since April.
Another incumbent, Democrat David Chidester, who is seeking a second six-year term, raised $17,064 since April and carried over $20,437, according to his finance form.
Chidester contributed $5,000 of his own money earlier this month and received $2,180 from various unions.
