Members of the Federal Judiciary are appointed for life - they are nominated by the President to the Senate. The Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing into the nomination and will either recommend the nomination to the full Senate, or in rare cases reject it, other nominees may never receive a Judiciary Committee vote at all and their nomination is returned to the President at the end of a Session of Congress (every two years). If the nomination is recommended to the Senate the nominee can either be confirmed by voice vote or by the affirmative vote of 66 of the 100 Senators.

Some State Judicial officials are elected and can be re-elected, and frequently are, although some States may voluntarily introduce term limits, meaning a judge can only serve a fixed period of years.

State Judges are elected and re-elected by the voters of that State. The Judges run a campaign just like a politician and their names are on the ballots where people cast their votes.

Federal Judges are appointed by the President with the "advice and consent" of the Senate.

At the federal level, judges aren't elected but rather appointed for lifetime terms. State-level judges are governed by their state laws, but generally there aren't any term limits.
