Indiana's top justices retained despite pushback

The three Indiana Supreme Court justices up for retention will stay on the state’s top court, unofficial election night returns showed.

An Indiana Election Division update from 10:30 p.m. Tuesday night showed Chief Justice Loretta Rush, Justice Mark Massa and Justice Derek Molter easily winning approval.

Judicial retention is usually a foregone conclusion during election season, but a grassroots social media campaign sprung up to remove the three because they upheld Indiana’s abortion ban.

About 71% of Hoosiers voted to retain Rush, 69% Massa and 69% Molter.
