Provides for the election of all judges

SJR 122 proposes a constitutional amendment requiring all Missouri judges - including supreme court, court of appeals, circuit, and associate circuit judges - to be elected by voters in general elections, replacing current appointment or selection methods. It sets specific terms: 12 years for supreme and appeals court judges, 6 years for circuit judges, and 4 years for associate circuit judges. The amendment also allows voters in most judicial circuits (outside St. Louis and Jackson County) to vote via referendum on whether to maintain a system of governor appointments through a nonpartisan commission, but the default would be election. This change would take effect at Missouri's 2026 general election or a special election called by the governor, pending voter approval.
