Okay, where are my #Wisconsin #politics peeps?
Was part of a #WiscoWarriors group over on 🐦 and would love to construct something similar here. Everyone who works to #ElectDems is invited, wherever you are. But assume #WisPol ppl & other #Midwest residents probably most interested.
🚨There is a state Supreme Court #election in April that could FLIP THE COURT'S PHILOSOPHICAL LEAN!!!
While officially, judicial elections are nonpartisan, obvi, some candidate will be more progressive than others.
@CLManussier I'm not interested in progressive candidates, just liberal ones.
@TruthSandwich
Not Progressive, just progressive...
liberal of center
The retiring justice is quite conservative, so this represents one HELLA opportunity to make a BIG difference in how law (and its application) is interpreted here.

@CLManussier Sorry, the term is a bit ambiguous. That's why I refer to the Progressives, as they call themselves, more accurately as the socialist populists. In contrast, liberals are progressive in the general sense.
I'm all for installing more liberal judges; that's one of the things Biden has excelled at.
