It is a very informed electorate, clearly, clearly making a decision. The direction that they want to see this court go. And what's that direction? I think what they are telling us is that The court was really carrying the water for a long time for right wing special interests and they did not want that anymore. They have asked us to follow the rule of law. They have asked us to make our decisions based on what the law is and not what the right wing special interest is asking for. (05:46–05:54)
