On Tuesday, Wisconsin voters will go to the polls to elect a Supreme Court justice. The results of that race could determine whether the state will become a liberal hell hole like Illinois or if common sense will prevail.
Susan Crawford and Brad Schimel are running to replace Justice Ann Walsh Bradley, who is retiring. The winner of Tuesday’s contest will serve a 10-year term.
Although Supreme Court races are officially nonpartisan in Wisconsin, most everyone knows that Democrats support Crawford and Republicans support Schimel.
Spending is through the roof in this pivotal race. Crawford has raised $21 million to Schimel’s $10 million, but the real story is how much satellite groups are spending—$80 million to date. Ballotpedia says it’s “the most expensive judicial race in U.S. history.”
Currently, liberal justices hold a 4-3 majority on the court. A win by Schimel would flip the balance. With issues like the state’s abortion laws, union rules, redistricting, and cases involving basic law and order potentially coming before the court in the coming months and years, another liberal justice would be a disaster for the state and allow the crazies on the Left to gain ground.
