Abstract

While most commentators have been focused on the outcome of key Senate races in this year’s midterm elections, it is important to remember that many states were also electing judges for high courts as well this week. Chris W. Bonneau and Jeremy R. Johnson give an overview of the results including a million dollar race in North Carolina, ballot measures on judicial retirement ages, and Tennessee’s vote to allow the governor to appoint judges of the Supreme Court and intermediate appellate court, subject to legislative approval.
