#Portland if you haven't voted, today's the last day. Living in these times I think it's pretty obvious why electing better judges is one of the best things you can do to improve your community.

My picks for the 4th district circuit court:

- Behre
- Perini-Abbott
- Brown
- Hagedorn

I think these picks are all significantly better than their opponents.

Half the time locally (WashCo) there's only one choice and how does one even research a judge (serious question because I do get how critical these appts are).
Thanks for providing info - its a rarity.

@Petesmom The voter's guide was pretty good for the judges. I generally read through and mark red and green flags. This election that was sufficient as there was very little overlap, where multiple candidates had both red and green flags.

Hagedorn, for example, green flags endorsed by Working Families Party, some labor, 2 of the more progressive city councilors. One of his opponents, Lee, had red flags endorsed by the DA and the police associations.

There used to be a great site pdx.vote which has been unmaintained. I'm going to reach out to them and see if we can get that working again.
