Since 1958, a nine-member commission vets candidates and sends three names to the governor — a system born from a 1956 scandal that exposed political maneuvering. If voters approve the amendment, justices could run campaigns and join parties — something currently forbidden. If they reject it, the status quo remains, with appointments and six-year retention votes. This vote could reshape Kansas’s judicial selection forever.
