We need recall provisions that automatically trigger votes when a court agrees that preconditions have been met. For example, if you can show, to a less-than-criminal standard of evidence, that an elected has deliberately misled their constituents or broken their oath of office, a vote is scheduled

Yeah, we need better ways to remove judges too. I like the idea of letting Bar Associations remove judges over their jurisdictions for specious reasoning. But, I've little reason to think the BAs are reliable institutions, either. Perhaps the Judges' Association should be involved... or not.
