It looks like all the Right Wing foolishness with the voting in that state backfired.

Wisconsin Supreme Court election: Karofsky claims win over Kelly

Dane County Circuit Judge Jill Karofsky won the race for Wisconsin Supreme Court, narrowing the conservative majority after a tumultuous election conducted in the midst of a global pandemic, according to results released Monday.

...

Karofsky's victory marks the first time in a dozen years that a Supreme Court challenger defeated an incumbent — and just the second time in more than half a century. Her win over Justice Daniel Kelly shifts conservative control of the court from 5-2 to 4-3.

Say cheese! This is a huge democratic victory, defying all odds no less.

The loser was the judge Trump had been touting. Nowadays, that is probably the kiss of death.

This is a referendum on Trump, and a sign that suppression of democratic voters will likely not work this November.

what suppression? the Georgia bill you guys love so much was passed by house dems in the 90's :lamo
 
The Wisconsin GOP tried to kill voters and didn't even get a judicial seat out of the deal.

Are you attempting to take the position that voter suppression tactics simply don't exist, or merely that they do not appreciably affect the outcome of elections?

I will wait until the dust settles. But Wisconsin is not a lock for Trump. Biden can appeal to blue collar workers, that is a fact, and it worries Trump's team.

Yeah, my wife entered the room saying something about a D judge winning in Wisconsin. I knew right away which race that was. So, after I told her Karofsky beat a Trumper judge, she threw me a high-five.

Happiness in the Calamity household.

No. Still Republicans.

Gerrymandering and other forms of voter suppression was a Democrat tactic back when they were in the minority and fighting for power, but now that it is Republicans that are fighting for power from a minority position, they are making liberal use of it.

The real question is whether the GOP will now file a law suit to stop the implementation of the results of the election? The GOP forced this election probably knowing that it was their best chance to win the one issue that was important to them in this election, the supreme court seat. They went to both the state and Federal courts to get rulings so they could continue this election on this date. Now i suspect they will go to court to have the courts overturn the results of the election as it did not go the way they wished. The real joke is that the supreme courts, both state and Federal are so controlled by the GOP that they might just rule the election results invalid and order new elections. Kind of like the GOP gets its cake and can eat it to as far as the courts are concerned.
