"Indianapolis -- Marion County voters have less influence than they may
think about which judges are chosen for the Marion Superior Court. Today
the ACLU of Indiana, on behalf of Common Cause Indiana, filed a lawsuit
challenging state law governing that process to ensure voters of every
political stripe can cast meaningful votes for all judgeships to be
filled in Marion County. 'The system for electing judges in Marion
County is unique in Indiana, and possibly the nation,' said ACLU of
Indiana Legal Director Ken Falk. 'It is imperative that we ensure that
when the State opts to fill positions through the ballot box, it does so
in a manner that allows Hoosiers' votes to matter.'"
