Or he simply gets paid well enough for his job, so makes rulings that keep his court packed with “work” that keeps those around him happy (and employed). The only reason judges usually loose re-election is if they don’t have the support of their party and local court (staff, lawyers, etc). It wouldn’t surprise me if there were enough lawyers who use his court registered to vote in his region to affect the outcome of elections; judges can win with double digit votes, or even run unopposed.
