Alliance Grids - Take 3 - Subcircuits 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15

Some blanks remain in these updated Alliance 'grids,' but with early voting well underway, the Alliance of Bar Associations for Judicial Screening has been kind enough to send me this latest draft. Earlier this morning I shared the new Alliance grids for countywide races and Subcircuits 1 -6.
