3 Tennessee Supreme Court Justices Seeking Retention Launch TV Ad

  • Thursday, July 10, 2014
Tennessee Supreme Court Justices Connie Clark, Sharon Lee and Chief Justice Gary Wade

are launching a television ad as part of their effort to convince voters to retain them in the upcoming election.

Campaign officials said, "Upholding a fair and impartial court based on a solemn oath sworn by each Justice is at the centerpiece of a television ad that begins airing across the state today. The ad, 'Oath,' features the justices as each vowed to 'Support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the state of Tennessee' . . . 'faithfully and impartially . . . so help me God.' "

Brenda Gadd, campaign manager for Keep Tennessee Courts Fair, said, “Underpinning that theme are the facts that these Justices have protected individual rights, our 2nd Amendment right to bear arms, and they have upheld nearly 90 percent of death sentences that have come before them."
