Ratings for Judicial Candidates
WAPA ratings are
based on a rigorous vetting process. A committee of elected and deputy
prosecutors reviews the candidates' Uniform Judicial Evaluation
Questionnaire, conducts reference checks, reviews their judicial writings,
and conducts in-person interviews. All posted ratings are approved by the
WAPA Board of Directors.
Each rating is
exclusively for the office sought by the candidate. A candidate's rating
for a different court might be higher or lower than the rating stated
below.
The procedures,
rating criteria, and scoring matrix used by prosecutors are described
fully in the
WAPA Judicial Evaluation Procedures.
