Alabama SB283 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to change the election method for Supreme Court justices and appellate court judges.

Alabama SB283 proposes an amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 2022, altering the election process for associate justices of the Alabama Supreme Court and judges of the appellate courts. Currently, all judges are elected by the voters within their respective court jurisdictions. The proposed amendment would change this, starting with the 2028 General Election, to allow for district-based elections as determined by the Legislature. The amendment would become part of the constitution if approved by a majority vote.
