Buying Time 2010: Alaska

This page features Alaska judicial ads of 2010.

Published: September 19, 2010

A single judge on Alaska’s Supreme Court was on the ballot in 2010, when Justice Dana Fabe sat for a retention election. A group called Alaskans for Judicial Reform, which opposed Fabe because of rulings in abortion cases, mounted an effort late in the campaign season to defeat her. The group aired a campaign ad in the final days before Election Day, in which it urged Alaska voters not to allow “bad judges to shred the will of the people,” and said Fabe had “opposed parents rights [and] forced taxpayers to pay for abortions.” Despite the “vote no” campaign, Justice Fabe was retained by voters with a “yes” vote of approximately 55%.
