Give more power to Kansas voters The people of Kansas might just get a chance to vote on a change in the way we select judges for our higher courts in the next year or two. And it’s about time. The system we have now is about as undemocratic as you could get. The state went from electing judges to the Kansas Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals to having them appointed by the governor from a short list submitted by a “nominating commis- sion.” The commission is made up of four members appointed by the governor and five elected by the state’s lawyers. The system was made part of the Kansas Constitution after the infamous “Triple Play” of 1957, when Chief Justice Bill Smith resigned early so the incoming governor, Democrat George Docking, would not get to appoint his replacement. Justice Smith was said to be a strong supporter of Gov. Fred hall, who then resigned his position. The lieutenant governor, John McCuish, then became governor and appointed hall to fill the vacancy for chief justice. he served only two years, however, resigning to run again for governor. (he’d lost the 1957 Repub- lican primary as an incumbent.) hall lost and left for California, but his legacy was “reform” of the judicial nominating process. A governor no longer can ap- point his friends, because he has no input on the list. Control of the nominations vests mostly in the lawyers, a small group who are expected to rise above politics to select the very best minds for our courts. But, as a group, who’s more political than lawyers? The system mostly has served to perpetuate control of the courts by members of the Topeka establishment, center-left thinkers who in recent years have pushed the state away from the conservative principles held by a majority of voters. Notes from the statehous It’s not that the system took politics out of the process, it seems, but that it eliminated any say the voters or the governor have in The “Weekly Five Hard Facts” of labor unions for the purpose of contribut- the process.
