Possible change to elected district judges in NE Kansas

A Leavenworth Times article reports that the judicial selection method will be up for decision for district judges in the First Judicial District (covering Leavenworth and Atchison Counties). They currently have a nonpartisan selection method, but a petition has been submitted to change to partisan election. This has come up a couple of times in recent years in Shawnee County and failed. I wonder what the last switch was?
