Speaking about his endorsement, Congressman Duncan said, “Before I went to Congress, I spent 16 years as a lawyer and Judge in Knoxville. I have known Tony Stansberry since before he became a Judge, and he is one of the finest men I know. He is very highly-respected by the legal community and treats everyone in his Court, both lawyers and litigants, with fairness and kindness. The citizens of Knox County are fortunate to have a man like Judge Tony Stansberry on the bench, and I am very proud to help re-elect him as Judge.”
