You understand that with respect to abortion, the effect of Dobbs was precisely what you seem to be asking for? That is, Dobbs handed the issue back to legislators.
- michaelt 2y agoMaybe - but Dobbs is 50 years too late for anyone to say "American judges aren't political" Some US states even elect judges and sheriffs, just like they elect politicians - complete with TV ads and tens of millions of dollars being spent by shady super-PACs.
- nradov 2y agoAll US states except Rhode Island and Hawai'i elect county sheriffs. There's nothing wrong with this, it is inherently a political office. Sheriffs are part of the executive branch and have no real judicial role.
