Same in Michigan, appointed then have to run for reelection, that the only reason the Michigan SC stays on the conservative side....its on a non partisan ballot...if you don’t read,you don’t know who is liberal or conservative. Those that vote in the cities of Detroit and Flint, etc, don’t know a democrat judge from a republican one....
