Delaware judicial elections
From Judgepedia
Contents |
Justices and judges in Delaware do not participate in judicial elections. Instead, they are screened by a judicial nominating commission, chosen via gubernatorial appointment and confirmed by the Delaware Senate. When their terms expire, judges are subject to the same system as the original appointment.
Similar systems, with some variations, are utilized in Hawaii, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
