NO REGRETS: As Republican former Superior Court judge Judith M. Ryan challenges Rep. Robert K. Dornan (R-Garden Grove), another jurist says his race for Dornan’s seat six years ago was well worth it, even though he lost. Superior Court Judge David O. Carter was beaten in the Democratic primary but says he has “nothing but positive things to say about the political process.” He says he liked getting out and talking to the voters and may run again someday.
