Secondly, judges are non-partisan.

This is a fact that seems to have evaded our friendly citizen.

Finally, anyone who questions

the integrity of Judge Hankinson has not had an opportunity to see this

man on the bench. I had the pleasure to watch Judge Hankinson serve the

citizens of Fayette, Spalding, Upson and Pike counties for the last seven

months.

He truly listens to each case.

He puts the concerns of the innocents first, such as appointing a guardian

ad litem for children in cases on contentious divorces and chairing a

task force against domestic violence. Moreover, he is creatively trying

to break the cycle of crime. He requires anyone who does not have a high

school diploma successfully obtain a GED as part of any guilty plea.

Hankinson is an honest, caring and innovative judge and a man of incredible

integrity. I invite anyone who has not seen Judge Hankinson on the bench

to watch some of his proceedings and find out why even Republicans such

as myself are grateful for his work for our county.
