[Editor's Note: All I did was suggest we get more bloggers out there reminding people to vote. Didn't realize I'd resurrect the (blogging) dead. Posted for Gatemouth by mole333...whoda thunk it]

At the request of Mole, I’ve come out of retirement for the rare cause on which we both agree.

The race between Noach Dear and Karen Yellen in Brooklyn’s 5th Mucicipal Court District is the most unambiguous choice available in this year's Brooklyn judicial elections, and it has been ignored for far too long in favor of a forest of dead trees written about the far more ambiguous Surrogate's race (I’m voting for Simspson, but to explain why would take more time than the race merits). Residents of Bay Ridge, Kensington, Sunset Park, Windsor Terrace, Dyker Heights, Borough Park and portions of adjoining communities should run, not walk, and vote early and often for Karen Yellen.

Did anyone else happen to catch Noach Dear's performance on CBS 2 News this evening?

I would rate it higher than most professional comedy acts.

They even call out the Brooklyn machine for the real reason they're pushing Dear. To keep him out of the State Senate.

Watch for yourself here
