a judges political party should not affect the way she or he makes a decision on the bench

Step-by-step explanation:

religion, personal experience, upbringing & anything else that affects a judges personal values should not affect their legal decisions because America is a free country, which includes religious freedom! Their decision should be fully based on the law!
