Something people are sleeping on: One of the 4 state justices who voted to make abortion illegal in Iowa in late June, David May, is up for retention this fall.
This was a 4-3 decision.

Viral or not, sharing as you are able is helpful. Also supporting Bolts' essential work as a donor helps them reach their audience!
Also, impactful orgs are out there that support down-ballot races like these. Voter contact, fundraising, etc. It's where I personally spend my time and effort
Daniel, love what you are doing, it’s so important. I’m trying to figure out which 2 #Florida State Supreme Court justices are up for retention elections in November so I can share it with folks in #Florida. But I can’t find their names. Can you help ? Thanks in advance. 😎
I wish we had this mechanism with Federal judges. Why don't we? It would be the ultimate solution to this issue with the SCOTUS. If we ONLY had the power to, as voters, reject an appointed justice if it's clear they are just pissing in our faces. Do it in shifts like the Senate, 1/3 at a time.
i'm visualizing him flying out the door, bouncing on his ass, then sliding unceremoniously into the gutter.
May the voters see what is being done to them.

"Then, in 2020, Democrat John Barrow ended that long streak of uncontested elections by announcing a run to join the court—only to have GOP officials exploit a loophole that wound up outright canceling the election.
"Barrow sued to make the state hold supreme court elections that year, but..." 2/?
