    In theory that’s how it works already. In practice, there is currently no disadvantage to appointing partisan judges and no system in which to objectively measure partisanship of a candidate. What that means is that there will always be partisan parties appointing partisan judges and there will always be candidates who claimed to be neutral who will be either accused of or proven to be partisan anyway.

    In the current system true neutrality on the bench does not exist

      Pretty easy to find out if they’re religious though. Getting rid of that would help quite a bit. A system to hold them accountable for being asshats would be great too.
