Just days before filing closes on Friday, County Judge Nina Di Pietro drew an opponent.
Brenda Di Ioia has decades more experience than Di Pietro and apparently none of the baggage that surrounds the controversial judge.
Di Ioia has been a Broward Traffic Magistrate for 23 years and an attorney for 25 years. She is currently the Chief Traffic Magistrate, in addition to being an arbitrator, an adjunct professor at Nova Southeastern Law School and Broward College and an instructor at the National Judicial College.
She will be running against Di Pietro, who has been the center of controversy since she applied for to be early appointed judge last year.
