Judge-elect Robert Amador; San Diego Superior Court

Robert Amador will be elected as judge to the San Diego Superior Court. Winning a landslide victory, Amador defeated private practice lawyer Jim Miller of El Cajon with 59 percent of the vote. Amador secured the position at 1:00 am on November 7.

The election is finally over.  A winner has been announced, and the parties have all ended.  Now we must ask ourselves, "What now?"  The country is still facing some very large issues between now and then end of the year.  These range from taxes, the debt ceiling, and many more things.  The lame-duck Congress, the one that has been one of the least productive in history, is charged with dealing with these topics with President Obama.  It remains to be seen if the two sides can put aside major differences to hammer out a compromise for the good of the nation.
