Los Angeles County, CA June 6, 2006 Election
Smart Voter Political Philosophy for Robert Davenport

Candidate for
Judge-Superior Court; County of Los Angeles; Office 122

This information is provided by the candidate

Los Angeles County is 40 percent Catholic, and 55 percent Protestant, and yet this 95 percent of the population is not reflected in the ethnic diversity of judges in the Los Angeles Superior Court.

Judges are elected in California for a reason, and that reason is to reflect the ethnic diversity of the population of the state.

In addition, Los Angeles has one of the largest veterans populations in the country, with 600,000 veterans, yet where is their representation on the bench?

If you elect me, you help to increase the ethnic diversity of judges in Los Angeles County, by increasing these under-represented groups in Los Angeles County, to more accurately reflect the ethnic diversity of the county.
