What percentage of defense attorney's are democrats?
That is a good question. Most defense attorneys are former prosecutors. It is easier to get a job with the District Attorney or the head prosecutor working for government. Prosecutors are usually Republicans. When they want to go out on their own and start a defense practice the prosecutor usually has experience in the community and experience in the law and experience on how the other side thinks, all very valuable. Once they become defense attorneys and they grow older and wiser they tend to be Democrats. As they grow older the really successful defense attorneys make a lot of money and become Republicans again. So it is hard to say. Depends on age, experience and income levels.
