Tuesday Twitter roundup

The front lines in the war against democracy:

Should judges remain nonpartisan? Because #ncga wants (D) & (R) next to the names of judges & making it a partisan issue. We need to separate politicians & judges.They have eliminated 2018 primaries for judges this year creating confusion at the voting booth. @democracync #ncpol

Here's a prediction, and one which I hope I get wrong: The November 2018 ballot will have painfully long lists of candidates for judicial districts, and after voters have been forced to slog through all those names with which they're not familiar, they will be given the choice to continue electing judges, or allow them to be appointed. Thus creating a new phenomenon, the "push ballot."
