Alphapatriot has an excellent spreadsheet up at TennWatch charting all the various endorsements for the Shelby County judicial candidates on the ballot here. It would seem quite useful for Republicans and Democrats alike; by no means should any voter enter the booth this election without a voting guide (or several), unless you’re one of the handfull of people who is very familiar with all 300 or so candidates.

I’ve decided that’s about all I’m going to say for the remainder of this election cycle, other than to make this plea: please do vote, and please vote for people you personally know are trustworthy or have been carefully reviewed by outside groups you trust to make the right call. Skipping the election because you don’t have all the information and voting blindly are not realistic options; too much hangs in the balance.

Times and locations for early voting in the August 3 election are available at shelbyvote.com.
