State Supreme Court elections vary by state but generally involve voters selecting justices or judges for the State Supreme Court through either partisan or nonpartisan elections. In some states, justices are appointed rather than elected.
These elections often attract less attention than other political races, yet they are crucial in determining the makeup of the court and can influence decisions on critical legal matters within the state. Campaigns may involve candidates highlighting their experience, judicial philosophy, and sometimes endorsements from various groups or individuals.
