I'll do some checking around, but Sheriffs in Southern Oregon tend to be popular and incumbent no matter what reality is. I never ran across one who was very straight up. The judges, oh boy, Oregon judges just have to be seen for you to believe it. I heard judge jokes before and figured that sure, they were amusing but not particularly based on reality, that is until I went to court in Oregon. We are talking people who would not be qualified to wipe tables in your average California law office.

Now Oregon lawyers, there is a useful bunch. For something, just not legal practice.
