Not much drama in Jacksonville area circuit judge races

What do Marianne Aho, Russell Healey, Angela Cox, Steven Fahlgren, Jack Schemer, and Linda McCallum have in common?

All six of them are running unopposed for re-election for 4th Circuit judgeships, as of Friday afternoon.

There are just two competitive races in the 4th Circuit.

Group 9 incumbent Bruce Anderson faces David Trotti,  a Jacksonville lawyer specializing in family law and bankruptcy proceedings.

Anderson has just over $100,000 cash on hand in his campaign account; Trotti has no money in his.

Group 25 incumbent Mark Hulsey will contend with a challenge from Gerald Wilkinson, a Jacksonville lawyer who specializes in family law and criminal defense.

Hulsey may face more difficulty in the money race. His campaign account has $10,100 in it, with $10,000 of that being a personal loan.

Wilkerson, who filed Friday, has $20,000 in his account, he let us know.

“The article [previously] said that I don’t have any money in my campaign account.  As you might know, that information is generated when a candidate files his quarterly Financial Disclosures, which were not due for me yet.  I started my campaign with $20,000.00,” Wilkerson wrote in a statement.
