Choose ‘can do’ public servants

In a campaign dominated by sleazy political tactics and cowardly consultants, I look forward to casting my vote for three candidates dedicated to open, transparent and honorable public service. For Yolo County Superior Court judge, I’ll be voting for Dan Maguire. Dan exemplifies the kind of judicial philosophy that we should want in all of … Continue Reading

Yolo County Republicans pull Parish endorsements

Clint Parish said Saturday he’s forging ahead with his bid to become a Yolo Superior Court judge, despite the loss of two more major endorsements Friday. “I made an error in politicking, but I still feel I’m the best candidate,” said Parish, who is attempting to unseat incumbent Judge Dan Maguire. “I’ll keep talking to … Continue Reading

Retain Yolo Judge Dan Maguire

As an attorney with more than 40 years of experience in both criminal and civil law, I am supporting Yolo County Superior Court Judge Daniel Maguire for re-election. He is well-respected by his fellow judges and the Yolo County Bar and has been found qualified by the California Commission on Judicial Nominee Evaluation. (By running … Continue Reading

I’ll vote for Greenwald, Maguire

Letter writers amaze me with the ways they dress up their message that, “I’m voting for this candidate, and you should, too.” I’ll be direct: I’m voting for Sue Greenwald for council, and Dan Maguire for judge. I agree with Sue on a lot of issues, and I feel she always brings her intelligence, analytical … Continue Reading

They spew garbage, then go into hiding

Parish expresses ‘regret’ for Maguire ads, but supporters jump ship

Yolo County judicial candidate Clint Parish’s endorsement list continued to shrink Thursday, fallout from a pair of election ads Parish now says “reflected an aggressiveness that was not appropriate for this campaign.” Parish’s boss, District Attorney Jeff Reisig, and the Woodland Professional Police Employees’ Association both withdrew their support for Parish’s candidacy, two days after … Continue Reading

He’s what we need in a judge

Judge Dan Maguire is who Yolo County needs on the Superior Court, and brings an outstanding set of skills and experiences with him. As a judge myself, serving Yolo County since 1995, I am in one of the best positions to know who is (and who isn’t) qualified to be a judge. All Yolo County … Continue Reading

Parish engages in table-pounding

Judge Dan Maguire is a smart, capable, honest and ethical jurist. He is respected and endorsed by the entire Yolo bench, by the Yolo Bar Association, by the Yolo sheriff’s deputies and the legal community here and statewide because he is a good man and a great judge. He is running on the merits of … Continue Reading

Is this the way a judge should behave?

BobDunning2W

POINTING THE FINGER OF BLAME … Clint Parish, that take-no-prisoners candidate for Yolo County Superior Court judge, claims he is all for “personal accountability” … he does, of course, make an exception for himself and his own bad behavior … after admitting to The Enterprise’s Lauren Keene that no, his opponent, Judge Dan Maguire, did … Continue Reading

A sincere apology would be honorable

YE SHALL REAP WHAT YE SHALL SOW … alarmed to see his name listed as an endorser on one of the most vicious pieces of campaign literature ever to hit Yolo County mailboxes, Sheriff Ed Prieto wasted little time telling judicial candidate Clint Parish that he was withdrawing his endorsement … Ed Prieto is a … Continue Reading

Parish ads heat up Yolo judicial race

What had been a cordial Yolo County judicial race changed dramatically in tone this week with the release of two campaign mailers linking incumbent Judge Dan Maguire to the shortened prison term for the son of one of former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s political allies — a decision that Maguire says he had no involvement in. … Continue Reading

Where’s fairness in this attack?

Don’t be fooled by the recent attacks on Judge Dan Maguire. His opponent, Clinton Parish, touts his criminal law experience. It is interesting that at a recent Yolo County Bar Association judicial candidates forum, Parish praised Judges Dave Rosenberg and Tim Fall and retired Judge Tom Warriner. All three judges have or did have felony … Continue Reading

Reject this kind of politics

I was stunned when I read the outrageous hit piece I received in my mail from the Clint Parish campaign. It’s disappointing to know that the worst of political campaigning has infected even Yolo County judicial elections. I, for one, am utterly appalled that these tawdry tactics are endorsed by someone who proposes to hold … Continue Reading

Don’t be deceived by smear tactics

Our Yolo County judge, Dan Maguire, is running to retain his seat, and he deserves our support. Dan’s distinguished education, broad legal experience and record of leadership among his peers set him apart from the competition, although Dan himself would be among the last to emphasize these. My family and I have known Dan for … Continue Reading
