Electing judges doesn’t really make sense to me. Are people supposed to dig up every court case they’ve ruled on? (Or for prospective new judges, every case they’ve represented in as a lawyer?)

(I’m in USA Btw; Does any other country even “elect” judges? Such a weird thing IMO.)

    One of my strategies for voting on judges is looking up who in my state appoints them. Do I trust that person to appoint reasonable judges or not? I vote to retain and dismiss judges accordingly.
