“Having sat in Saratoga County Court at both the defense table and the prosecution table I have a deep-rooted appreciation for the challenges faced by both,” Kurtz said, in a statement. “If elected, I will treat every person who appears before me with dignity and respect. I will be fair, impartial, and reasoned in my deliberations and decisions from the bench.”
