Ballotpedia provided coverage of supreme court and intermediate appellate court elections, as well as local trial court elections for judges within the 100 largest cities in the United States as measured by population.
Selection of state court judges in New Hampshire occurs through a form of merit selection. Three groups are involved in the appointment process: the New Hampshire Judicial Selection Commission, who compiles a list of qualified candidates; the governor, who nominates a judge from that list; and the New Hampshire Executive Council, who has the final say in each appointment.[1] Judges in New Hampshire serve until age 70.[1]
No New Hampshire Supreme Court justice needed to stand for election in 2020.
