If the results of the Indiana State Bar Association’s 2010 Judicial Retention Poll are any indicator of next month’s election, then the five Indiana Court of Appeals judges up for a vote will be easily retained.

Judges L. Mark Bailey, Cale J. Bradford, Elaine B. Brown, Melissa S. May, and Margret G. Robb received 75 percent or more “yes” votes from 1,078 ISBA members. Judge Bailey received 86.7 percent “yes” votes; Judge Bradford received 83.2 percent; Judge Brown received 74.9 percent; Judge May received 82.7 percent, and Judge Robb received 83.1 percent.

The ISBA’s Improvements in the Judicial System Committee e-mailed the poll to its members in three installments. The polls were sent out Sept. 17, Sept. 24, and Oct. 1. This is the second time members were polled electronically.

Indiana Lawyer posed several questions to the judges up for retention. Read those answers here.
