The Supreme Court of Virginia is composed of seven justices elected by a majority vote of each House of the General Assembly for a term of twelve years. Interim appointments are made by the Governor subject to election by the General Assembly at the next regular session. By law, the Chief Justice is chosen by the majority vote of the seven justices (http://www.courts.state.va.us/cib/cib.htm).
Supreme Court justices are often chosen on the basis of their qualifications. However, since being a judge is a political position, justices can also be chosen based on their political viewpoints.
