Question

All of the following are considered the 3 major methods of judicial selection except?

1) Appointment
2) Election
3) Merit Selection
4) None of the above

Answer 1

The correct answer is 4) None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is 4) None of the above. All of the options provided - appointment, election, and merit selection - are considered major methods of judicial selection. Appointment refers to the process where the president nominates a candidate, who then needs to be confirmed by the Senate. Election involves the direct election of judges by the citizens, and merit selection relies on the evaluation of candidates' qualifications and suitability by a nonpartisan commission. Therefore, option 4, 'None of the above,' is the major method of judicial selection that is not considered.
