INTRODUCTION The cost of winning judicial election has risen dramatically in recent years, to the point that critical state supreme court race may now cost more than most campaigns for the U.S. Senate.1 At the same time, interest group attention to these races has soared, as concern over tort reform has lead groups on both sides of the issue to escalate their election advocacy spending.2 Although voluminous commentary has addressed both the policy problems and constitutional issues surrounding the regulation of campaign finance in the legislative and executive arenas, comparatively little has been written about the unique problems that arise in the regulation of judicial election fundraising. The United States is unique among constitutional democracies in that it requires majority of its judges to stand for election in order to maintain their positions on the bench.3 A majority of both state appellate and state trial judges are elected nationwide.4 Currently, thirty-nine states require their judges to submit to some form of elections.5 One outgrowth of the states' preference for judicial elections is the requirement that judges and judicial candidates must raise substantial amounts of money in order to attain or retain judicial office.6 Dependence upon donor generosity may undermine the impartiality of judges who face future elections, when those judges try cases that involve the donors as parties, or when interests or issues important to the donors are at stake.7 The American Bar Association, which has long opposed judicial elections,8 has promulgated model regulations of judicial conduct on several occasions; the most recent version is the Model Code of Judicial Conduct, first published in 1990.9 The Model Code seeks, among other goals, to control the bias that flows from the financial relationship between judges and their campaign contributors.10 One provision of the Model Code, known throughout this Comment as the Solicitation Canon, bans judges or judicial candidates from personally soliciting donations to their campaigns. The Solicitation Canon states that a candidate shall not personally solicit or accept campaign contributions or personally solicit publicly stated support.12 The Canon existed in relatively similar form from its origins in the 1972 Code of Judicial Conduct to its present form in the 1990 Model Code.n It has been adopted, with minor variations, in the vast majority of states that have judicial elections.14 During the three decades since its initial promulgation, judicial candidates challenged the Canon's constitutionality under the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment15 twice, once in state court and once in federal court, and both times it was upheld. …" @default.
