Vote no on liberal judges

To the editor:

When you go to the polls next Tuesday, there will be names on your ballot concerning the retention of a Missouri Supreme Court judge and five judges for the Missouri Court of Appeals for our district here in Southeast Missouri. The six judges on the ballot up for retention or dismissal are Supreme Court Judge Richard B. Teitelman and appellate judges Clifford H. Ahrens, Kathianne Knaup Crane, Patricia L. Cohen, Booker T. Shaw and Glenn A. Norton.

In my opinion, the following judges are liberals who do not represent the morals or family values of rural Missouri. Supreme Court Judge Richard B. Teitelman is an extreme liberal and should not be retained. Court of Appeals Judge Patricia L. Cohen is a liberal and should not be retained. Court of Appeals Judge Booker T. Shaw is an extreme liberal and should not be retained.

Next Tuesday you have an opportunity to send the following message to these liberal judges: "Your values are not ours, and your fired." Please vote no on the retention of these three judges.

JOHN D. JORDAN, Sheriff, Cape Girardeau County
