Campaign website
Toledo's campaign website stated the following:
As a judge, my goal is to ensure every person who enters my courtroom is treated with respect, fairness, and dignity—regardless of their background or circumstances. I want to make the legal system more accessible, especially for communities who have historically felt overlooked or misunderstood. My years as a prosecutor taught me the importance of both accountability and compassion, and I will bring that balanced perspective to the bench. Above all, I aim to uphold the law with integrity while fostering public trust in our courts.
