Whittier Daily News
In their Tuesday, May 30, 2006, Opinion Editorials, Getting To Know
Judicial Candidates, all three publications state:
Guesswork is the wrong way to pick judges. Instead, rely
on sound advice. And the best advice comes from the conclusions of the
L.A. County Bar Association, whose 45-member evaluation committee this
year spent several weeks interviewing candidates and ranking them as
exceptionally well qualified, well qualified, qualified or not
qualified.
Our recommendation is that you vote
for those with the highest ratings in each of the eight contested
offices.
Office No. 28: Judith L. Meyer, a prosecutor and professor,
got the highest rating of exceptionally well qualified. There are
two other candidates, one ranked qualified and the other not qualified.
Meyer is a prosecutor for the
county and has received the endorsement of many, including [Los Angeles
County District Attorney] Cooley, who said "[Meyer] would be a
tremendous asset to the judicial system."

In their Tuesday, May 23, 2006, Editorial,
Endorsements for Superior Court Elections, the
Daily Breeze states:
We've picked the best qualified of these Los Angeles County office
seekers, with the help of the region's bar association and personal
interviews.
Office No. 28 -- The clear standout is
Judith Meyer.
Meyer's enthusiasm in running for office suggests that as a judge, she
would never settle for doing the minimum amount of work to get by.
Instead, she would always go the extra mile to apply the law fairly. She
has our endorsement.

In their Tuesday, May 16, 2006, Editorial,
[X] Judith L. Meyer, Los Angeles Superior Court Office
No. 28, the Metropolitan News-Enterprise states:
We would like to have seen Meyer win two years
ago, when we observed that she has "an unmistakable aptitude for
judicial service," adding: "She is intelligent, articulate,
dedicated, and possessed of ideal judicial temperament."
Our assessment of Meyer is not diminished. In
fact, she is even better qualified now, having two more years of
experience.
Our endorsement goes to Meyer, who is two years
overdue for a judgeship.

In their Monday, April 17, 2006, TIMES ENDORSEMENTS Editorial,
Superior Court, the Los Angeles Times states:
Office No. 28: Judith L. Meyer was an impressive candidate when
she ran for judge in 2004, but her opponent had the edge in experience.
Meyer, a
deputy district attorney with two additional years of prosecutorial and
courtroom time, is the outstanding candidate in this three-person field.
