Sheriff and judge make sense, or you’ll just get partisan people who benefit certain entities put into power by politicians. That’s why it’s wild to me that SCOTUS is appointed and not elected. They’re one of the most powerful organizations in the country, who can dramatically change our laws based on their interpretations, and they’re all completely partisan now.
Elected judges really isn’t all that common in the world. To me (Dutchman), electing judges/sheriffs sounds wild. Police does their own hiring, same goes for the judicial system. Judges decide who gets to be a high court judge, there’s no politics involved at all. That to me sounds like a massive violation of the trias politica.
