I have had the pleasure of talking with Doug Jarman many times over the last few months.  Judge Jarman was appointed by Supreme Court Justice Lloyd Karmeier to the 4th Circuit Court when Judge John Coady retired.  I can tell you that Judge Jarman is a good man with a good head on his shoulders and if elected, will continue to do an outstanding job. 

However, Judge Jarman cannot be elected without your support.  Jarman's circuit is 9 counties wide including Effingham, Christian, Clay, Clinton, Fayette, Jasper, Marion, Montgomery, and Shelby counties.  We need as many people to vote for the Judge as possible!

Judge Doug Jarman comes recommended from the Illinois State Bar Association and has received high marks from his peers.  Jarman's opponent, Michelle Coady, is somewhat related to the retired Judge John Coady, received a "not recommended" by her peers and received less than stellar marks.  Here's how Jarman and Coady stand up against each other head to head (from the Illinois State Bar Association):


As you can see, there is a HUGE difference between Judge Jarman's ability, qualifications and confidence of his peers than his opponent.  Vote for Jarman on November 2nd.  It's not everyday we get to place a good judge on the bench!!!
