Janet Protasiewicz 55.6%
Daniel Kelly 44.4%
Democrats now have full control of the Wisconsin election apparatus AND now the state supreme court.
Protasiewicz has been candid during her campaign for Supreme Court about her philosophy and values on issues such as abortion, gerrymandering, LGBTQ rights, and environmental protections.[2] She supports abortion rights and opposes the state's Republican-drawn legislative maps.
This creature is now the swing & deciding vote for all Wisconsin legal disputes.
Wisconsin is a "MUST WIN" state for Trump. There is now absolutely no chance of him winning the state. If you believe the election was stolen in 2020, then you have no choice but to accept it will be stolen by a much wider margin in 2024.
Trump has no path to victory on the electoral map anymore.
On top of losing Wisconsin tonight, the fact that full control of Arizona switched to the Democrats in the recent 2022 election also means that if you believe the election was stolen in Arizona in 2020, then you have no choice but to accept it will be stolen by a much wider margin in 2024.
This was a fucking disaster.
I am actually a bit shocked by the margin that Dan Kelly ended up losing by.
It is pretty fucking clear that abortion is a huge problem for the GOP. The Dems won this Supreme Court race solely by using abortion as THE only issue.
Our party needs to fucking realize that we will never win a swing election ever again if we don't have a more moderate stance on abortion. 15 weeks ban is the way to go.
I am pro-life but I realize that young women will literally even pay 1000 dollars for groceries in order to kill their unborn child.
The party needs to change their stance on abortion. If they don't change it, we will continue to lose everything.
Voting machines and mail-in ballots couldn't care less about abortion.
