It's election time (as if you hadn't noticed!). In addition to the high-profile races where plenty (maybe too much) information is available, we Nebraskans are asked to vote on retention of judges. Making an informed decision probably seems like an impossable task unless voters have personal experience with a particular judge.
The Nebraska State Bar Association surveys their membership and and publishes a Judicial Performance Evaluation on their web site.
