The August judge election in Germantown is different from other local races in the suburb.
Rhea Clift and Justin Gee are facing off for the position. It’s a six-year term as Raymond Clift Jr., Rhea’s father, retired in 2022. Kevin Patterson, appointed to the interim position, is not seeking election.
Clift and Gee both applied for the interim post before Patterson was ultimately appointed. Now, both are seeking the office for the unfulfilled portion of the eight-year term.
Germantown judge is the only city-specific race on the August ballot. Early voting runs from July 12 to 27. Election Day is Thursday, Aug, 1.
