The proposed resolution seeks to amend the Arkansas Constitution to enhance transparency in judicial elections by requiring candidates for various judicial positions, including Supreme Court Justices, Court of Appeals Judges, Circuit Judges, and District Judges, to declare their political party affiliation or independent status. This information would be reflected on the ballot, allowing voters to be informed about the political affiliations of the candidates they are considering. The amendment aims to replace the current nonpartisan election process for these judicial positions with a system that acknowledges and displays candidates' political affiliations.

If approved by a majority of voters in the next general election, the amendment would take effect on January 1, 2027. The resolution outlines the necessary changes to the Arkansas Constitution, specifically amending Amendment 80 to include the requirement for candidates to have their political party affiliation or independent status identified on the ballot. The resolution also establishes the title and popular name for the amendment, which emphasizes its intent to ensure transparency in the electoral process for judicial candidates.
