Merit Selection for Judges

In Pennsylvania, judges are elected by the voters in the Commonwealth. However, many organizations have been working to change this to a merit-based selection process including the League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania. Currently, there are two bills in the the Pennsylvania General Assembly, HB 1619 and HB 1621. Charlotte Glauser, a member of the League of Women Voters of Philadelphia, is the Judiciary Specialist for the Pennsylvania League. On December 7, 2009, she testified on these two bills regarding merit selection.
