What is the missouri plan, and how does it affect the governor's power?

Answer

Hi,

The Missouri plan was a technique used for selecting judges in Missouri in 1940. It was a non-partisan commission which vetted candidates applying to serve in the judiciary. After selection, the commission forwarded the list to the Governor to choose the best candidate for the position. The Governor was given a period of 60 days to conclude the selection process. This method affected the power of the Governor in that there was least political influence in selection of judges  in Missouri thus only highly competent judges were selected.

Good Luck!

The Missouri Plan born in 1940 was a system that involved selection of Judges by a group of attorneys not under the jurisdiction of the governor.

Explanation

The Missouri Plan provides rights to a nominate a commission with the charge of examining candidates for judicial vacancies.

This plan was criticized as the attorneys involved had a vague idea on the ideology of courts and these attorneys' use their own decisions in choosing a judge while the governor prefers a federal system.
