Wisconsin’s Supreme Court will stay in the hands of liberals for the foreseeable future after far-left Dane County Judge Susan Crawford handily beat conservative Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel in Tuesday’s nationally watched election.
With about 92 percent of the votes tallied, Crawford was leading Schimel by more than 8 percentage points — 54.2 percent to 45.8 percent — and was projected to have won the $100 million-plus contest, according to the Washington Post.
It felt like a cruel April Fool’s Day joke to pro-life conservatives, big-government reformers, and election-integrity advocates, among others on the right. And Crawford’s win has deep ramifications for next year’s midterm elections and the Democrats’ chances of taking back the U.S. House of Representatives and hobbling President Trump’s agenda.
