Wisconsin Supreme Court race will pit Daniel Kelly against Jill Karofsky

MADISON - State Supreme Court Justice Daniel Kelly will face Dane County Circuit Judge Jill Karofsky in the April election for a 10-year term on Wisconsin's highest court, voters decided Tuesday.

Kelly and Karofsky were leading in the primary as of 9 p.m. Tuesday, spelling the end of the campaign of Ed Fallone, a Marquette University law professor who made an unsuccessful bid for the Supreme Court in 2013.

The race now pits a conservative against a liberal in a one-on-one contest. If Kelly wins the April 7 election, conservatives will keep their 5-2 majority. If Karofsky wins, the conservative majority will shrink to 4-3.

In some ways, Kelly and Karofsky have been treating the campaign as a two-person race for weeks.
