2. Why are you running for Superior Court judge? (No more than 75 words total for questions 2 and 3.)
My election will increase the ethnic diversity of judges in Los Angeles County to more accurately reflect the population of the county. An important reason we elect, and not appoint, judges in California is to reflect the ethnicity of the population.3. What experiences and personal qualities best equip you to serve as judge? (No more than 75 words total for questions 2 and 3.)
Many ethnic groups are extremely under-represented on the bench, and as a result they do not receive a fair shake in the judicial system. My election will help to correct this injustice.
