Dee Butler. Scott is arrogant and would not be a good fit for this department.

Dee has little to no family court experience. Don't know Scott, but he at least knows something about family court. No really great choice in this one.

I don't know either of these candidates. I would love to hear from people who know them, what they are like and how they would/would not be a good fit for the bench.

Scott is a professional. He will be a great judge in the mold of Duckworth. If you like that, he's your choice. If you don't, he's STILL your choice.
