The retention elections for all district judges are held every six years, with the last one in 2008, he said, and every judge who’d been previously elected was up for retention regardless of whether he or she was at the end of a six-year term.

Some other judge will have to make a ruling on this, but it seem pretty clear to me now, she lost the retention election and regardless of her remaining term, she's gone. Why else would they have, "retention elections if you could serve out your the full term?"

Thanks I got the time of retention elections wrong. Kind of sounds like how Clinton acted the day Bush was inaugurated...one long winded speech after another I thought he would never leave. Democrat way no law applies to them.
