Robie missteps in Maine court appointments
The Maine governor is criticized for favoring Republicans in judicial selections. The article notes his nomination of Judge Peters to chief justice and then appointing Emery, a Republican, to fill Peters’s vacancy, leaving eight justices with seven Republicans and one Democrat, an alleged minority disenfranchised by partisan bias.
