Respectfully to the editor;

As often as this subject matter is posted on FitsNews, FitsNews is anything but indifferent to this race. It is appreciated that FitsNews clearly has no interest in seeing a liberal justice on the court at all, let alone in charge of it.

I concur.

Just sayin’

Jean Toal has a way of deflecting truthful answers and always had. When John Monk asked her about her “stocks,” she answered that she and Bill did not own any publicly traded stocks. She avoided answering what stock she owns in her closely held family companies – yes plural. Toal is a liar and is addicted to her corrupt power.

Any legislator who votes for her today will be held accountable at his/her next election. Only the dumb and corrupt are voting for Toal. We have enough honest folks watching this election today to make sure no vote goes unnoticed.

Pleicones is clearly the lesser of evils here. He may be liberal, but at least he is not a shameless crook, whose decisions are for sale to the highest bidder.

He is far the more intellectual in any event.

As many of you may recall, I have been at the State House for decades. I have never seen such a crass, low life, dishonest, promise anything to get elected race for a judgeship as I have seen from Jean Hoefer Toal. I remember when she got her in 1974 and tried to take charge immediately. I remember her running down The State reporters claiming she and some others were Young Turks and all that babble. I remember her lying about her cancer scare to get onto the House Judiciary Committee. She looked down on us working women who were not on her level.

Co Pleicones is an honest gentleman. Please call your representatives office NOW and tell her/him what you think.

Mike Fair is going to vote for Toal, The State says. Confirms our theory: Only the dumb and corrupt will vote for Toal.

She probably has video of that Bible-thumping hypocrite jerking off on gay porn of underage boys.

How long has that SOB Fair been in office? I’ll answer that – THIRTY YEARS IN THE STATE HOUSE AND SENATE! And 6 years before that on County Council. When is this bastard going to retire?

“That means if Toal prevails, lawmakers would be able to appoint a new justice to the court one year earlier than if Pleicones were to win … ”

Wrong again. If Toal loses she is gone in July and lawmakers would be able to appoint a new justice one and half years earlier than if she wins. Are you ever right about anything?

She’ll probably renege on this just
like she reneged on her public statement that she would retire at the end of
her current term. What would happen to her if she did? Nothing.

Wonder Woman is back on the job. The Legislature in SC is so corrupt they can not afford to take a stand.She rules for them when they want it or need it and the rest of the court are nothing more than lackey’s!

Shameful. The only good thing about today is that there is a clear list who believe that corruption and dishonesty is okay within the South Carolina Judiciary.

Oops. Someone must have missed the news. Justice was reelected in a not so close vote.
