Why it Matters…

Many think judicial races don’t matter much. In truth, the judges we elect can shape nearly every part of our daily life: the kinds of schools our children can attend, the safety of our communities, and the fairness of our elections. Not only is this election important, but YOUR vote carries weight… Your vote can tip the balance. Special interest groups know how narrow this margin could be. This is why they are sending out mailers that distort the facts and are trying so hard to swing the results in their favor. These special-interest groups and political action committees are spending millions to influence how Pennsylvanians think about these judicial races. Don’t fall for it.

What You Can Do…

- Exercise your right to vote and make an informed choice by using these resources.

- Know the facts so that you can vote your real values.

- Talk to your friends and families about the growing attention to the misleading mailers.

- Don’t fall for it.
