WOLFSON FORMS EXPLORATORY COMMITTEE FOR KINGMAN JUSTICE OF THE PEACE

 

Local Attorney Randolph D. Wolfson has formed an exploratory committee for his election as the Justice of the Peace, Kingman Precinct. If sufficient signatures are obtained for his inclusion on the Ballot, Democrat Wolfson is expected to run in the November General Election.

"The citizens of our growing community are entitled to be presented with candidates for election to the bench who are the best qualified and most experienced in the law. I offer the voters a nearly a quarter century of my own business, trial litigation and personal life experiences for the position."

Wolfson commented, "I view this election as an opportunity for me to serve this community which has been so gracious to me. I am wedded to the concept that as we grow, we need to stay focused on the life issues that matter most to all of us - safety, social stability and fairness in the handling of life’s most important problems. I will need the help of all voters who have this same commitment - Democrats, Republicans and Independents - to make this opportunity a reality."

"Lets face it, I have 24 years of trial experience in criminal law - both as a prosecutor and a defense lawyer. I have real estate, finance, medical malpractice and other personal injury litigation experience. My moral compass points True North. I am a most qualified candidate to stand for this election. As I speak to groups large and small and as I talk to voters door to door over the next months, I intend to prove that my qualifications, legal experience and life experience sets me apart from others who have announced in this race." Wolfson said.

Wolfson said, "I will be 56 years old by the time this election rolls around and my hair is already grey. Having successfully raised four children [who have given me three grand-kids so far], while at the same time managing a healthy law practice for a couple of decades, its a wonder I have any hair at all. But, life has been very good to me. It is just too obvious - life experience and legal experience are the two major things the voter looks for in a judge. I am blessed with both, abundantly."

"It is time the voters be given a clear choice. I intend to make that happen." Wolfson said.
