Court OKs delay of Pennsylvania judicial retirement ballot
A Commonwealth Court panel upheld the Legislature’s move to delay the April primary ballot question on extending sitting judges’ retirement age, ruling the General Assembly acted within its powers to set voting timing and method. The April vote had 2.4 million ballots with 51 to 49 percent against the measure, though not counted. The same election also included a separate ballot item to abolish Philadelphia’s traffic court. The replacement question is slated for November and omits any retirement age reference.
