GOP Loses Gamble In Wisconsin [View all]

[RandySF]

Wisconsin Republicans forced an in-person election during a pandemic because they believed a low turnout election would ensure a State Supreme Court victory.

But the AP and Milwaukee Journal Sentinel report they lost.

Progressive Jill Karofsky defeated conservative Justice Daniel Kelly, just the second person to knock off a sitting justice in 53 years.

Washington Post: “It was also hardfought because of potential implications in the November presidential elections, with a judicial decision about whether to purge the state’s voter rolls hanging in the partisan balance of the court.”
