Impartial Justice Act
Currently Minnesotans have little to no information about judges up for election; they have no real power to hold judges accountable; and are at risk of losing their courts to special interests and big money politics. The Coalition for Impartial Justice believes that the following reforms are critical. We have faith in the Minnesota voters. Please give them the opportunity to make up their own minds at the ballot box by supporting a constitutional ballot question on this very important issue.
The following three elements, taken together, empower Minnesota voters. Citizens will have information regarding a judge's performance, the opportunity to hold the judiciary accountable, and the assurance that no special interest can "buy" a judicial seat.
Retention Elections
Restoring Accountability to Voters
Public Performance Evaluations
Empowering Voters with Information
Merit Selection
Ensuring Quality and Impartiality
