At the Lectern has Legislation proposed to curtail elections of Supreme Court justices:
A bill was introduced yesterday to change the election system for Supreme Court (and Court of Appeal) justices. ACA 8 would amend the state constitution to authorize the Legislature to “provide by statute that the name of a judge of the Supreme Court or a court of appeal who files a declaration of candidacy shall not appear on the ballot, and instead the judge shall be deemed elected, unless a petition requesting that the judge’s name appear on the ballot is filed by a requisite number of registered voters qualified to vote for the office.”
