Jameson Not on the Rocks/Here's to You, Mr. Robinson

Posted by Jack Silverman on Fri, Feb 17, 2012 at 2:39 PM

The City Paper's Pierce Greenberg looks at the results of a Nashville Bar Association poll showing that Mike Jameson and Phillip Robinson get the most high recommendations in the Davidson County judges primaries:

The poll revealed that roughly 49 percent of 1,062 NBA members “highly recommended” Jameson for a General Sessions seat. Jameson, a former Metro council member, was appointed by the council to replace Judge Leon Ruben as General Sessions judge in November 2011.

Rachel Bell, an attorney at Bell & Kinslow PLLC, and defense attorney Jack Byrd only received a combined 139 “high recommendation” votes, compared to Jameson's 518.

Robinson received a 40.8 percent “high recommendation” compared to attorney Stanley Kweller's 16.6 percent.

Anyone know why The Tennessean endorse Rachel Bell for General Sessions judge? That struck me as an odd move on the paper's part.
