Bill Moody (judge)

Judge Moody in October 2009 announced that he would seek the Democratic Party's nomination for the Texas Supreme Court. He intended to use a blimp to travel around the state and advertise his campaign.[1]

Judge Moody was the Democratic nominee for Place Two on the Supreme Court of Texas in the November 2006 general election.[2] His opponent was the incumbent, Justice Don Willett. Judge Moody sought to become the first El Pasoan to be elected to statewide office in Texas as well as the only Democrat on the Court, whose current membership is all Republican.[3] In his campaign, he walked across Texas, which drew extensive press coverage.[4][5][6][7] Moody was defeated in the general election.
