Dallas County Judges Lose Seats in Democratic Deluge

Victories Represent General Shift As GOP Loses Grip On Area

I said this on another thread, but six years ago, you were hard-pressed to FIND Democratic candidates for judgeships in Dallas County. HARD-PRESSED.

In 2004, I think Democrats took four judgeships from Republicans in Dallas County (and the new sheriff elected that year is a Democrat).

This year? 41. Forty-fucking-one.

I think I'm in shock still.
