SC Club for Growth – Key Vote Alert<\/p>\n
South Carolina Club for Growth strongly urges all members of the General Assembly to support Senator Lee Bright\u2019’s motion to recommit Judge Kaye Hearn’\u2019s nomination to the Judicial Merit Selection Commission. \u00a0The vote will be included in the Club’\u2019s 2009-2010 Legislative Scorecard.<\/span><\/p>\n SC Club for Growth believes South Carolina’\u2019s judicial selection process needs significant reforms. \u00a0Those reforms include moving to a more federal-style selection system, where nominees are chosen by the governor and confirmed with the advice and consent of the Senate. \u00a0Judge Hearn’\u2019s now-unopposed nomination has exposed every imaginable flaw in the current system.<\/span><\/p>\n Mainly, political maneuvering and blatant disregard for judicial merit have characterized the process. \u00a0Recommitting Judge Hearn’\u2019s nomination would bring much-needed awareness to these problems. \u00a0South Carolinians deserve a judicial system served by independent and responsible judges – not by those who can survive the Columbia political gauntlet.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This notice came after the fact, but I agree with its importance.
