NO on all the amendments.
YES on all the Judges.

The proposed amendments were all written by the republican legislature. You can read through them, but rest assured they aren't good.
The issue of merit retention for the judges is political payback. The Judges nixed a couple of legislature-written amendments in the last election. This is Dean Cannon's payback. The merit retention policy is intended to remove politics from the appointment and retention of judges. They have committed no breach of duty or ethics, thus deserve to be retained.
