She’s great!! Watched her grow from Deputy to Judge!! Good head on her shoulders!! Keep up the great work!! She would have my vote if I lived in Escambia County!!!!
She has my vote. When I went through the corrections academy in 2001 she was one of my instructors and was a very knowledgable, humourous, and professional person. Good luck and best wishes.
Anyone who knows or has had any dealings with Judge Dickey knows she is extremely ethical and honest! We could use an entire county full of elected officials identical to her! I will be first in line to place my vote for her!
Darlene, you have my vote and continued support. You are a great person and a great friend.
I previously worked with Judge Dickey at the Sheriffs Office and found her to be an all around professional. I had a chance to work on a few projects for her and found that she was more interested in doing what was right instead of what was easiest or most popular. Once becoming a judge, I saw that she was fair and based her decisions on common sense. One might think that since she spent most of her time on these enforcement/prosecutor side, that she would be harder on the accused and give breaks to Leo’s. That has not been the case. She is well respected and I believe her career as a judge will take her much further than escambia county court. I hope you will all support her because she is one of the good ones.
She should certainly serve as an inspiration to anyone who has aspirations of serving within the judiciary.
You’ll not have mine!
Behind you 100%
Mine too. Watched her go from Deputy to Judge and found her to have a great moral character. Will make a great one for sure.
You have my vote!
