State Sen. Ophelia Ford, D-Memphis, requested to delay a vote on a constitutional amendment that would abolish Tennessee’s current method of judicial selection during Thursday’s legislative session. Ford said she had questions and wanted to wait until the state attorney general addressed them. Despite controversy and brief confusion over delaying the vote, the motion to roll the bill until next Thursday was approved. WMC News 5 has the story.
