Judges on the ballot

In Maryland, judges of the two top courts are appointed by the governor, approved by the state Senate, and then face a yes-or-no vote on whether to keep them ("continuance in office") for a 10-year term. No one runs against them. Circuit court judges run in contested elections on each county's page.
