common pleas in the county of their appointment.  The judges may at any time, by a vote of a majority of all their number, remove

any commissioner and appoint a successor.  Upon a vacancy occurring in the office of commissioners of jurors, for any cause,

the judges shall, as soon as practicable, in like manner appoint a successor.  The successor so appointed shall be of the same political party as the commissioner

whose place is to be filled.  The commissioners shall be officers of the courts of common pleas in such county. (B) The commissioners may examine under oath any juror called for trial as to that person's
