MANSFIELD: A Local Election...
First, congratulations to Judge Emanuella Groves for her solid victory in the 8th District Court of Appeals race against three other challengers. Her vote total more than doubled that of her nearest rival, which is quite an accomplishment, but not surprising considering her long stellar service to the community.
While two of the other three candidates no doubt would have done well on that bench, the outcome is welcome assurance that voters were paying attention and selected wisely.
