Tennessee Judicial Retention Elections
Tennessee Lt.
Gov. Ron Ramsey campaigns against the retention of three
sitting state Supreme Court justices. Channel 5 says "All it would take is one of those seats to give Republicans a majority on the court, which probably would lead to a Republican Attorney General. Getting an attorney general who thinks more like Republican leaders seems to be the lieutenant governor's main motivation."
