(Columbia, SC) -- South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson wants the state to change how judges are selected.
Currently, South Carolina's legislature elects judges.
The decision is made by a candidate screening panel whose 10 members are made up of lawmakers and others selected by legislative leaders.
Wilson says the process is not balanced between the three branches of government.
He was joined by a bipartisan group of sheriffs and solicitors Monday to ask for changes to the judicial selection process.
