Four Seasons Politics Voters Resist Judge Selection Change
North Carolina Republicans outline a multistep appointment plan to replace voter elections for judges, creating a public nominating stage, a nonpartisan commission, and a governor appointing, with final voter retention or rejection.

The Purple Plan combines merit selection with public involvement, aiming to speed passage before elections while preserving accountability and independence.
