Letter: Bar association supports Swanberg for Superior Court judge

There is an important reason why Sam Swanberg enjoys the overwhelming support of the Benton Franklin Bar Association. The reason is experience.

Superior Court judges have the opportunity and the obligation to “do justice.” Sam Swanberg has seen firsthand the importance of this role and has prepared himself in a way that few have to assume this role.

I urge the voters of Benton and Franklin Counties to vote for Sam for Superior Court judge.

Judge Dennis J. Sweeney, Retired, Richland
