Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

At the federal level, federal judges are appointed. The appointment starts with the president. The candidates are then screened by the U.S. Attorney General. Interest groups, the ABA, and the Senate are also involved in the appointment process.

At the state level most judges are elected, but they can be quite political. Some states use a merit selection process and choose candidates based on qualifications and have a nonpartisan commission to evaluate and appoint the judges. Finally, some states have gubernatorial and legislative appointments by the state governor.

All of these processes have negatives and positives and there is no perfect system that will allow for judicial selection to be completely objective and only bring on those judges that are qualified.
