LINK TO SURVEY
(ANONYMOUS)
Along with the SCPR overall objective of having Stark citizens be more informed about their public officials in non-judicial positions, The Report has started this project to aid voters in determining whom they will vote for as judicial elections come up.

Over time, the SCPR will be building up a database of the numerical scores that represent Stark Countians' (lawyers and non-lawyers) perceptions of the quality of Stark County judges.
In this first publication of results, a mere 15 Stark Countians have weighed in on the evaluation. However, the survey has only been available for one day.
As survey numbers build up, The Report will, periodically, publish updates to the spreadsheet published in this blog.
Today's spreadsheet (obviously deficient in terms of significant numbers) is published to give responders an idea of the criteria they will be evaluating on and also to confirm their anonymity.
Across the nation in places where judges are elected, voters are least informed about the quality of the American judiciary. Consequently, while incumbency is a potent factor in public officials getting re-elected; it is all the more so when it comes to judges.

The Report has made taking the survey "anonymous" because yours truly recognizes that the already limited field (only those who know from direct experience their impressions of how a judge handles her/his court) of respondents will be all the more reluctant if their identity is not protected.
If you as a reader of the SCPR have experience in one of the courts listed in the graphic above, please help out your fellow citizens who have not been in one of the courts to have experienced the quality of justice being rendered, by taking the survey.
If you know someone who is on the Internet who is not familiar with the SCPR and yet whom you know to be in a position to evaluate, please forward this blog by using the email button from the bank of buttons immediately below the blog.
