Smart Voter Official Statement for Jeff Bennett

Candidate for
Judge, Superior Court; County of Ventura; Office 5

This is a copy of information submitted to elections officials by the candidate

Name: JEFF BENNETT
Age: 52
Occupation: Chief Deputy District Attorney

My entire adult life has been dedicated to the cause of justice and protecting the public, as a deputy sheriff, police officer, criminal trial prosecutor and for 13 years as Ventura County's Chief Deputy District Attorney. Now, as a candidate for Superior Court Judge, I am honored to have the support of the District Attorney, Sheriff, police chiefs, public officials, business owners and community leaders.

As a Ventura County native, our community's values have played an important part in how my wife Dee, a teacher, and I raised our two daughters. As a parent and a prosecutor, I know we all want safe neighborhoods for our children. My belief that we can all make a difference led me to volunteer for youth sports activities and educational enrichment programs.

Throughout my public career, I've earned a reputation for hard work, honesty, integrity and respect for all people in our justice system. I am the only candidate for judge with extensive criminal justice experience.

As your next Superior Court Judge, I promise above all else to be fair and committed to ensuring the rights of all persons who seek justice in my courtroom. I would be honored to earn your vote.
