* Based on her other notable decisions and on her vote to uphold same sex marriage in subsequent decisions, I think she should be retained.

Her dissent on marriage equality was on a very narrow issue. She believed it should be determined at the ballot not in the courts. Read excerpts from her dissenting opinion here.

And watch this interview with her here. She seems bright, fair, reasonable, inpartial, non-partisan, everything you'd want in a judge.

From Wikipedia: "Corrigan's notable opinions include a March 2, 2017, ruling in City of San Jose v. Superior Court,[10] that emails and text messages on personal devices of government employees are subject to disclosure under the California Public Records Act.[11][12] In 2012, she dissented in a case concerning the statute of limitations for claims of abuse by a priest.[13][14][15] In 2011, she authored the majority opinion in Save the Plastic Bag Coalition v. City of Manhattan Beach, in which the court upheld a city ordinance banning plastic bags, reversing the appellate court.[16] In 2008, she wrote a dissent in the same-sex marriage case, In re Marriage Cases."
