Maybe they figure you don't need the reminder? ;)

I find voting on judges *incredibly stressful*, and I actually rather would have them appointed. It goes back to my entire issue with direct democracy in communities that are really too big to support it: I vote for legislators, and it's their job to do things like write laws and vet judges. If I disagree with the laws they create or the judges they appoint, I can always vote in someone else.
