This editorial from 2016 lambasting Arizona Republicans for seeking to "court pack" the Arizona Supreme Court is kinda funny. Note that this means ADDING seats. When the Republicans did it this was bad. Now that Democrats want to do it, it's good.
Our View: Arizona's Supreme Court expansion is about 1 thing
Editorial: Republicans are using the promise of more funding and better pay to build support for two justices that aren't needed. Guess why.
LOL!

If Arizona’s Republicans respect the Constitution, they had better show it now.
They had better resist the temptation to pack the Arizona Supreme Court and effectively take control of the third branch of state government.
They had better reject House Bill 2537, a proposal to increase the size of the state’s highest court from five to seven.
The corrosive potential of this bill should be apparent to constitutionalists who look beyond the siren call of instant gratification. It erodes the independence of the courts and makes a mockery of the concept of checks and balances built into our system of government.
LOL!
