Ouster of Iowa Judges Sends Signal to Bench

An unprecedented vote to remove three Iowa Supreme Court justices
who were part of the unanimous decision that legalized same-sex marriage in the state
was celebrated by conservatives as a popular rebuke of judicial overreach,
even as it alarmed proponents of an independent judiciary.

The outcome of the election was heralded both as a statewide repudiation of same-sex marriage
and as a national demonstration that conservatives who have long complained about “legislators in robes”
are able to effectively target and remove judges who issue unpopular decisions.

Conservative groups this year launched similar campaigns in a number of the 16 states that use merit selection,
targeting supreme court justices for rulings on abortion, taxes, tort reform and health care.

Unlike the three in Iowa, however, those judges — in Alaska, Colorado, Kansas, Illinois and Florida — were all re-elected.
