Is it because they don't think you can win or because you've said you're not a Republican? Well, one, I can win. I will win. And two, the reason why is I'm running not as a conservative. I've never been a member of a party, so I'm not a Republican and I'm running as an independent. I think that's the key here. I'm getting support and big momentum and groundswell from people in this state who are tired of seeing the politicization of our state Supreme Court. (52:35–52:43)
