1976 - 2020 Retention Vote History

This table shows the percentage of yes votes received by each judge from 1976 when the Council began to evaluate judges standing for retention through the most recent retention elections. A judge must receive a simple majority of yes votes to be retained in office. When first appointed, judges stand for retention at the first general election held more than two years after their date of appointment (district court), or more than three years after their date of appointment (superior court and appellate courts). After that, they stand for specific terms, which are: district court – four years; superior court – six years; court of appeals – eight years; and supreme court – ten years.
