Taylor (D) makes case for election to Supreme Court

Rights, freedoms and democracy are the stated cornerstones of Judge Chris Taylor’s bid for a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. And she touched on all those topics when she visited the Shawano Civic Center on Jan. 21 as a guest speaker at the monthly meeting of the Shawano-Menominee Counties Democratic Party.

“We have a great opportunity on April 7 to expand the majority on our state supreme court that will put the people of Wisconsin first … and protect our democracy and our rights, and make sure that every Wisconsinite has equal access to justice under the law,” she said.

Taylor, a Court of Appeals judge, is running against Maria Lazar, also a Court of Appeals judge, for a 10-year on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Justice Rebecca Bradley is not seeking another term. Election Day is April 7.

Wisconsin Supreme Court elections are nonpartisan, the same as all spring elections. In the last 20 years, races have become more and more partisan. Today, there is typically one candidate aligned with the Democratic Party of Wisconsin — in this instance, Taylor — and one aligned with the Republican Party of Wisconsin, Lazar.
