PA Justices
Blog Post

Three state Supreme Court justices Christine Donohue, Kevin Dougherty and David Wecht offered a glimpse behind their chambers doors Monday, September 8, 2025 as they seek voters’ approval in November to serve second terms. Judges in Pennsylvania are elected to 10-year terms in partisan elections. Once in office, however, they stand for retention in “yes” or “no” referenda to serve subsequent terms.

The event, Behind the Ballot Fireside Chat: PA Supreme Court Retention Elections was co-sponsored by the court access group Pennsylvanians for Modern Courts, the government watchdog Committee of Seventy and the Pennsylvania League of Women Voters.
