You have forgotten about the people when you endorse Kevin McArdle for Lewis County court judge. For 19 years, Dan King has represented the people of Lewis County, many hundreds if not thousands of them. Many of those he has represented as a trial attorney in Lewis County Court and Lewis County Family Court. During those years, he has become a veteran trial attorney and has honed those trial skills that are so necessary to any county court judge or Family Court judge in the daily dealings with trial attorneys in cases pending before the court.

I see him as a man of compassion, who interacts with all people easily, because he likes people. He remembers people, because they are important to him. People remember him, because he has been with them in times of need.

I do not believe that the courts are made up of rooms, desks, books and memorandums of law. It is defined by the people who appear before the court and the compassionate justice they should receive. Law is created for the benefit of the people. We are entitled to a judge who is our judge, who knows and cares about us. That is Dan King.
