MADD keeps very close tabs on judges.  I'm sure other people do to, although maybe not as closely.

I don't remember seeing judges' salaries in the millions.

Judge's salaries are set per the title/position, separately from voting for individual people.  Here's a survey of salaries:

http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos272.htm#earnings

"the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court earned $212,100 in 2006"
"salaries of chief justices of State high courts averaged $142,264 and ranged from $102,466 to $200,613. "
