Appellate court race tightens as endorsers pile up
In Carbondale with less than two weeks to go, Democrat candidates Judy Cates of Belleville and James Wexstten of Mount Vernon campaign for the 5th District Appellate Court seat. Wexstten won an endorsement from Southern Illinois Doctors, while Cates says endorsements are inappropriate in judicial races. Wexstten, appointed last year to fill a vacancy, seeks to hold a traditionally Southern Illinois seat as both campaigns tout fundraising, public outreach, and criticism of political influence in the judiciary.
