Don't be swayed by advertising

Wonder why Noverini signs are sprouting like proverbial mushrooms? Even though this is a presidential election year with a race for U.S. Senate, House of Representatives and on and on, all we see is Noverini for circuit court judge.

The reason is simple. When you have never tried a case, when you have no judicial experience, you can only run on one thing - planting yard signs. Maybe Noverini thinks that this will mask his "Not Recommended" rating by the Judicial Evaluation Committee.

Judge Patricia Golden received a 93.63 rating for Legal Ability. Noverini received a failing score of 33.96 from a poll of bar association members.
