The conservative candidate for Wisconsin Supreme Court called government aid to single women a ‘husband-substitute program’ in a post on the website Hang Together

Janet Protasiewicz and Daniel Kelly fought over their records on decisive issues that the court could rule on in the coming years, such as abortion and redistricting.

The conservative candidate for the Wisconsin Supreme Court has long been vocal about his opposition to same-sex marriage and the ‘damage’ recognizing it could have.

State Rep. Donna Rozar made the comment while introducing a bill to create rape and incest exceptions for Wisconsin’s draconian ban on abortion.

The director of Common Cause Wisconsin, a government reform advocacy organization, says that the April Supreme Court election carries massive implications for democracy in the state and nationally.

Daniel Kelly voted in 2017 against a rule that would force judges off cases involving those who spent money to get them elected.

The national group is the latest reproductive rights organization to throw its support behind the liberal candidate in this year’s high-profile election.

The conservative jurist has ties to anti-abortion groups and a long record of anti-abortion views.

The conservative Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate was involved in a GOP scheme to submit fake electors to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and was part of a nine-city ‘election integrity’ tour in 2022.

The liberal nominee for Wisconsin’s highest court says the current conservative majority is ‘making decisions based on right-wing partisan beliefs.’

The candidate that wins the April 4 election will either confirm the status quo or shift the court’s balance to a 4-3 progressive majority.

The April 4 election will determine the ideological balance of a court that could soon hear challenges to the state’s 1849 abortion ban.

The groups have ties to a national anti-abortion group, election deniers, and a major conservative donor.

Both Jennifer Dorow and Dan Kelly attended Regent University, a law school founded by Christian nationalist Pat Robertson.

The fate of abortion rights, voting rights, and fair congressional and legislative districts depend on the balance of conservative and liberals on the court.

The group is backing liberal Judge Janet Protasiewicz in a technically nonpartisan election with major implications for abortion access in the state.

The race will determine the partisan makeup of the state’s highest court at a time when abortion rights and voting rights are at risk.

The circuit court judge rose to national fame during the trial of the Waukesha Parade attack perpetrator, becoming a subject of viral TikTok content and a recipient of fan mail from around the world.

Wisconsin Democrats have vowed to continue viewing April’s judicial contest as a ‘de-facto referendum’ on abortion rights.

Two liberal and two conservative candidates are vying for the one spot on Wisconsin’s top court that could have significant impact on the state for decades to come.

At the same time, the Republican candidate has spoken out against same-sex marriage and accused pro-choice organizations of seeking to ‘preserve sexual libertinism.’

The race will determine whether Wisconsin’s highest court has a liberal or a conservative majority, and could decide the fate of abortion and election law in the state.

The race could determine whether liberals or conservatives have the majority on the court, which has implications for a slew of contentious issues and the 2024 presidential election.
