Dodge City, KS (westernkansasnews.com) The Republican primary in the 16th District/Division One for judicial contest between 37 year old Michael Giardine and 51 year old Sidney Thomas will determine who takes over for the retiring Daniel Love. Both candidates appeared at last week’s forum sponsored by the Republican Women of Ford County. Thomas focuses on what is best for the child in custody cases.
Thomas believes a judge should allow for some leniency in sentencing certain defendants.
We will hear from Thomas’ opponent Michael Giardine tomorrow.
