Politicians like Assembly Speaker Barbara Buckley have been pushing for "Yes on Question 1" - a ballot measure that would overturn our current system of electing judges. Supporters say it chooses judges based on merit, rather than the ballot box. But one professor says there's some wisdom to keeping the election system. Chris Bonneau offers his insights for preserving how Nevada chooses its judges. And he'll be speaking at UNLV on Wednesday night.

GUEST
Chris Bonneau, Assoc Prof of Poli Sci, University of Pittsburgh
