SB 1746 - Currently, under Article V of the Missouri Constitution, judges of the Supreme Court of Missouri and of the Court of Appeals, judges in certain circuit courts, and certain associate circuit judges are selected by gubernatorial appointment following nominations from the nonpartisan commissions. This act provides for the election of all judges of the Supreme Court, of the Court of Appeals and of the circuit courts, and associate circuit judges, including methods for declaration of candidacy, nominating committees, and election contents. This act is contingent upon the passage of a constitutional amendment that requires the election of all judges. KATIE O'BRIEN
