Oakland County Prepares for 6th Circuit Court Judge Election
Oakland County, Michigan will be the center of attention as residents get ready to vote for the 6th Circuit Court Judge on August 6, 2024. Three candidates have stepped forward to go head-to-head in the nonpartisan race, none of whom are current judges.
