Um. Isn't there a conflict of interest here?

What's the use of being County Executive if you can't hire your friends and relatives?

His counsin doesn't mind using Pollitt Bright at election time.

Judges of Orphan's Court are voted in by the people, not hired by the Administrator. The pay increase would no take place until after the election. I do not see this as a conflict of interest since the cousin may not be re-elected. All that feel Pollit is out of line have the choice of not voting for Rick or his cousin.

How many times does one have to say it before you get it? The raises are for the job, not the person. Pollitt Bright was an Orphans Court judge long before there was a county executive.
