Two candidates for the Wisconsin Supreme Court, Susan Crawford and Brad Schimel, engaged in a heated debate in Milwaukee, with tensions running high as they sparred over issues like crime, relationships to donors, and abortion. Both candidates accused each other of politicizing the nonpartisan court, with Crawford backed by liberals and Democrats while Schimel is supported by conservatives and Republicans. The race, which has already seen record-breaking spending, could shape the direction of the court for years to come.
Issues like abortion and Act 10, a law that weakened public unions, are likely to come before the court, adding to the stakes of the race. Crawford questioned Schimel’s ties to Elon Musk and accusations of being influenced by outside spending, while Schimel defended his record on crime and commitment to impartiality.
With both candidates vying for a pivotal seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, the high-stakes race has garnered national attention and could have far-reaching implications for the court’s future.
