KANSAS on AUG 4th
VOTE YES OR NO!
Do you really know the Facts!
Don’t believe what your fed… research the facts - We did and we also talked to our State Representative, Susan
Humphries and verified!
We say YES - we are for the people and for giving every Kansan the right to vote. That is every Kansan! It is an election process!
Fact: Kansas is the only State that has Bar controlled nomination process!
Here is what this Amendment is!!
“Kansans will decide to keep or change the Supreme Court Justice nomination / selection process in August 2026.
A constitutional amendment will be placed before voters giving Kansans the opportunity to decide whether to keep the current bar-controlled nomination process, or return to direct elections. ( that means You and Me - the people)
Kansas started with a popular vote selection process in 1861. In 1958 the constitution was changed to give lawyers, who are members of the bar, the majority of the members on a nominating committee which selects 3 candidates from whom the Governor must choose one. Kansas is the only state which has a bar controlled nominating commission and has no options for other candidates to be considered.
This debate has been building for years, with supporters arguing that voters deserve a direct say in who serves on the Supreme Court, while opponents warn that attorneys are best qualified to keep politics out of the courtroom. The outcome of this vote will shape the future of Kansas courts for decades to come.
Comparison: Current v. Proposed
CURRENT PROCESS
Bar-Controlled Selection
How It Works:
Filling a Vacancy on the KS Supreme Court: When a vacancy occurs, the nine-member Kansas Supreme Court Nominating Commission receives applications to fill the vacancy.
Nomination of three candidates: After reviewing the applicants, the commission submits three candidates to the Governor.
Final Selection: The Governor must select one of the three within 60 days. If the Governor declines, the Chief Justice makes the appointment.
Retention Elections: After serving one year, justices face a statewide yes/no retention vote, and then again every six years
PROPOSED PROCESS
Return to Direct Elections
How It Would Work:
Filling a Vacancy on the KS Supreme Court: When a vacancy occurs, Kansans would vote directly for a new Supreme Court justices on the ballot, similar to other elections.
No Commission: The nine-member nominating commission would be eliminated.
Candidate Campaigning: Candidates could campaign for votes and be subject to public disclosure rules.
Staggered Terms: Justices would continue to serve six-year terms, but elections would be staggered so that not all seven justices are on the ballot at once.
Vacancies: Interim vacancies would be filled through an election process established by lawmakers.”
If you don’t believe me Just look it up for yourself!
Don’t just believe the believable flyers in the mail the truth is in non of them!!
Billionaire- Corruption - No one is buying any seats!
