Judicial Merit Selection Committee – What is it?

2024 Judicial Elections heating up at the SC State House

Published

on

JMSC – Main Page: HERE

Ok … we have heard a lot about the desperate need for Judicial Reform in South Carolina (HERE) … and the fact that South Carolina is one of only two states where our Legislature (124 House Members & 46 Senators = 170 lawmakers) elects our judges.

And the legislators electing those judges include LAWYER LEGISLATORS … the same lawyer legislators that appear before these judges they elected.

Legislator Conflicts Of Interest:  So if you needed a lawyer … who would you hire?  The smartest lawyer on the street … or the lawyer legislator that ELECTED the judge you will appear in front of?  And if you were a lawyer legislator … wouldn’t your lawyer billable rate INCREASE substantially if you could tell clients you know the judge personally and helped put them on the bench?  Yes … they are PROFITTING … SUBSTANTIALLY!!!

Judicial Merit Selection Commission (JMSC):  So how does this whole process work?  How do legislators maintain tight control on the process?  It all runs through and is managed by legislators via the JMSC.  The JMSC has 10 members … 6 members of which are legislators … so who do you think controls the process?  Yes, it is simple math.

And wouldn’t a simple improvement be to bar “Lawyer Legislators” from being members of the JMSC?  Put non-lawyers on the JMSC.  That would be easy right?  Well … they don’t want to do even that.   


Below is the “Main Page” (HERE) of the SC Judicial Merit Selection Commission (JMSC).  This is where you can find a treasure trove of information about how the process works, how to file complaints, general information … and the 2024 Judicial Elections information (which is heating up at the SC State House right now).

So today you have a Homework Assignment!  Read up on the JMSC.  We have to know how it works if we want to fix it … or at least if we want to know how the “game” is played (to the disadvantage of citizens).

 There will be a test … so be prepared 😉  #Joke!!!

Happy Sunday – April 12th, 2026

1 John 5:4

Published

on

As we look toward the June 9th primary and the upcoming midterm elections, the energy across the state is unmistakable. With the filing deadline now behind us and a significant road ahead to November 3rd, the mission to lead South Carolina with integrity and conservative conviction has never been more vital.

In the midst of debates and the fast-paced nature of the campaign season, let’s remember the grounding word from 1 John 5:4.

This scripture reminds us that while we work tirelessly for a win at the polls, our ultimate victory is already secured through our faith. We are called to be overcomers – not just of the opponents, but of the cynicism and weariness that often plague public service. This perspective allows us to participate without fear and campaign with a spirit of excellence.

As we press forward together, let’s carry this truth with us: our efforts are strengthened by a higher calling. Stay encouraged, stay grounded, and let’s continue fighting for the values that make South Carolina strong.

Thank you for standing with us in this important season. Your support, prayers, and hard work are deeply appreciated.

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), He was mocked, beaten, and abused. He was nailed to the cross. Yet He conquered the power of sin and defeated death itself.

Happy Sunday!

Happy Sunday – April 5th, 2026

Matthew 28:6

Published

on

He was mocked, beaten, and abused. He was nailed to the cross. Yet He conquered the power of sin and defeated death itself. He did it for you. He did it for me. He did it for the sins of the entire world. HE IS RISEN!

There is no greater comfort, no deeper peace, than living under the covering of the Lord – knowing the risen Savior walks with us through every trial, every joy, and every moment of this life. There is no greater blessing.

May the glorious truth of Easter, the risen Lord, fill your heart with love, gratitude, compassion, and unshakable hope.

Happy Easter!

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), this Palm Sunday, let us not just be “political actors” following a script, but “transformed citizens” who lead with a conscience shaped by faith rather than the shifting winds of culture.

Happy Sunday!

Romans 12:2

Published

on

Dear South Carolina Patriots,
This Palm Sunday, let us not just be “political actors” following a script, but “transformed citizens” who lead with a conscience shaped by faith rather than the shifting winds of culture.

As Romans 12:2 reminds us: “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” We remember the Triumphal Entry of Jesus, where the crowds sought a worldly king, but received a Savior who transforms from the inside out. Riding humbly on a donkey, He rejected earthly pomp as the people shouted “Hosanna!”

Today, we face the same choice: conform to cultural / political patterns or pursue mind-renewing transformation. As transformed citizens, may we engage politics with humility, truth, courage, and moral clarity rooted in Christ.

Happy Sunday!

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), as we enter Passion Sunday, Romans 8:11 reminds us of an incredible promise that fuels our hope and resolve.

Happy Sunday!
