If the commission finds good cause from any investigation, it may elect to issue a private reprimand, or make a recommendation to the Supreme Court of public censure, suspension, removal, or retirement of the judge. The affirmative vote of four members of the commission who have considered the record, and at least three of whom were present when the evidence was produced, is required for a recommendation of private reprimand, suspension, censure, removal, or retirement of a judge.
