Campaign to toss justices off Indiana Supreme Court countered by new PAC
For the first time in more than a decade, an effort is rising to encourage Hoosier voters to throw some justices off of the Indiana Supreme Court.
A so-called “retention question” appears on the Nov. 5 election ballot, asking voters whether they want to keep Chief Justice Loretta Rush and Justices Mark Massa and Derek Molter on the state’s high court.
A social media campaign is asking voters to toss them off because of their decision to uphold the near-total abortion ban approved by the Legislature in 2023. The five-member court ruled 4-1 to uphold the law.
While the opposition percolates mildly on the internet, a bipartisan political action committee of prominent attorneys and former state justices has formed to help keep the three Republican-appointed justices on the court.
