Abstract:
The process of electing North Carolina’s judges is examined. The history of judicial elections in the state is explored. North Carolina does not hold partisan elections for judges. Many think the system should change as most citizens are uninformed about the candidates. Several changes are proposed, but most believe politicians have no will to change the current system despite its problems.
