I have known Shanda Harry for more than 10 years and can’t think of anyone more suited to be the next Lake County Superior Court judge.

I first met Shanda Harry when we were both hired to be prosecutors at the Lake County District Attorney’s Office and I was immediately impressed with her keen legal mind and strong sense of justice.

Shanda also has an innate ability to defuse stressful situations with her calm and capable demeanor.

Shanda introduced me to my husband and we have been friends for over 10 years now. We both chose to raise our families in this community and Shanda is dedicated to keeping Lake County safe.

I know that she will work hard every day to make sure that everyone who appears before her is treated with fairness and dignity.

Join me in voting for Shanda Harry for Lake County Superior Court judge on Nov. 6.
