State court judges are usually _____ for a specified term.

Elected
Appointed
Nominated
Hired

The correct answer is: Elected

State court judges are usually elected for a specified term. This means that citizens in the state have a say in who becomes a judge, by voting for them through democratic processes. This is different from being appointed, nominated, or hired. Appointed judges are chosen by a person or group of people in government, while nominated judges are recommended by someone else for a position. Hired judges typically refer to judges who are employed by private companies rather than by the state. Therefore, elected judges are the best answer in the context of state court judges.
