I have never publicly endorsed a candidate for office---until now.
Judge Dreiling is an honest, hardworking, fair judge who would make an excellent district court judge. She has several years of experience as a jurist in Tulsa County. Perhaps more importantly, she has nearly 20 years of experience as a staff attorney on the Oklahoma Court of Civil Appeals. That first hand connection with the appellate process is what truly distinguishes her from every single other candidate, and makes her more qualified than the rest of the field.
+1. She's a special person and a great judge.
Honestly, all three special judges running for that spot would be fine. But Dreiling is one that is a must. I wish one could have run for the Clancy Smith spot.

Nope, we already had a dose of Judge Wall before.
Judge Wall isn't currently sitting as a special judge. She's in private practice.
Musseman has the least judicial experience, but I like him. Probably needs a few more years.
Dreiling had the hardest job over there -- guardianships -- and did a terrific job.
I'm voting for Carl Funderburk, but most of my liberal friends like Dreiling.
