{Frankfort, Kentucky}...Senate President David Williams was among nominees the Judicial Nominating Commission recommended to Governor Steve Beshear Thursday for an open judgeship in southern Kentucky. Beshear has said he would consider Williams for the job that pays more than $120,000 a year. Williams, a Burkesville attorney, says he is appreciative of the nomination, and, if Beshear appoints him, he will accept. The Judicial Nominating Commission offered Beshear two other options for the judicial seat, southern Kentucky lawyers Angela Capps and Stephen Douglas Hurt. The appointment is to replace the late Judge Eddie Lovelace, who died in September.
