I don't know if ballotopedia is biased, but it says that voters were pretty PO'd by the court overturning the death sentences of the Carr brothers. As I mentioned, I wasn't too astute a voter at the time. I did vote, but wrote in someone for president because I wasn't a fan of Trump and knew my vote wouldn't really matter in Kansas - I think I wrote in Harry Truman. Don't remember the part about Kansas supreme court retentions.

IMHO, Ballotpedia is somewhere between neutral to "center-right". For me they are a "go to" for background citations.

I haven't been very active politically until recently. I didn't even realize the KS supreme court justices were up for retention until I saw a bit about it recently from a mainstream (ie lefty source), saying the justices were all fair, blah blah blah. So I looked into it, and voted to retain ONLY Stegall based on him NOT finding a "right" to abortion in the constitution. Looks like there were about 7% of us that did that.
