KSDK Report Highlights Reviews Ahead of St. Louis Judges’ Retention Votes
KSDK reports on St. Louis' top judges facing retention votes, advising readers to consider their reviews, not just their rulings.
St. Louis, MO, October 22, 2026 —
KSDK has reported on retention votes involving what its coverage describes as St. Louis’ top judges, emphasizing that readers should consider judges’ reviews as well as their rulings. The summary of the report does not identify the judges or provide details about the votes.
The report’s stated focus is how readers assess judges ahead of those votes. It points to reviews as one consideration alongside rulings, rather than presenting rulings as the only measure. The summary does not explain what reviews were examined, who conducted them, or what they concluded.
Details about the timing of the votes, the number of judges involved and the specific rulings discussed were not provided in the available summary. It also does not describe how the judges’ reviews were gathered or define what “top judges” means in this context. Those details cannot be confirmed from the information available here.
The central point in the report, as summarized, is that readers should look beyond individual rulings when considering judges facing retention votes. The summary offers no further findings, direct quotations or information about the judges’ responses. It also does not state what the votes will determine or what happens after they are held.
Without those particulars, the report can be described only at a broad level: KSDK has drawn attention to upcoming retention votes and urged consideration of both reviews and rulings. The names, review results, vote dates and additional context were not included in the summary.
