Get Out The Vote in early 2023: Wisconsin Supreme Court
We accomplished much in the 2022 election, repudiating the doom-and-gloom-for-Dems and red-wave-for-the-GOP narratives that so many in legacy media eagerly promoted. Sen. Rafael Warnock's successful re-election campaign in Georgia topped an exceptionally gratifying election season, with his win giving us an important boost to our working majority in the Senate.
Between now and April 4, 2023, all hands are on deck to help elect Judge Janet Protasiewicz to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Her victory in the April 4 election would tip the balance on the highest court in WI to 4-3 in favor of Democrats. Accordingly, the right wing is going all out to elect her MAGA-supporting opponent.
It's hard to overstate how significant this election is. Wisconsin state Democratic chair Ben Wikler recently explained, the April 4 election may be the “only path in the next several years to undo the most extreme [Republican] gerrymander in the country."
