Down, dirty judicial races: Elections reshape Supreme Court

Courts: Judicial races demean courts
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 11/16/8 This state’s judicial elections continue to demean the dignity of the court and to see voters manipulated by special interest groups seeking to hold sway over the judicial philosophies of the courts.

Elections give Mississippi Republicans reasons to gloat
