John, this is Ben
Wikler, Chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, and in a moment,
[ [link removed] ]I’m going to ask you to donate so we can help us reach our goal to win
tomorrow's pivotal election, but first I want to explain the stakes:

Tomorrow, Wisconsinites will vote to fill an open seat on the state
Supreme Court—in an election that will determine whether that body will
have a conservative or a progressive majority until 2025. This race could
shape decisions on voting rights, election subversion, legislative
district lines, and so much more—and could have a larger effect on the
2024 presidential race than any other contest in the country this year.

Over these last two presidential cycles, the state Supreme Court has
played an outsized role in shaping the electoral playing field and the
powers of government in ways that have usually systematically advantaged
Republicans in Wisconsin.

In 2020, Donald Trump asked our state Supreme Court to illegally throw out
hundreds of thousands of votes in Wisconsin’s most Democratic areas.
Thankfully, his lawsuit failed, but only by a slim 4-3 margin. If we can
rebalance the Court, we are more likely to stop these brazen attacks on
our democracy in their tracks.

With a conservative justice retiring, April 4th represents a chance to
flip an open seat—which could lead to a Wisconsin Supreme Court majority
ready to consider cases on new state legislative maps, voting rights,
Wisconsin’s 1849 abortion ban, and otherwise examine cases based on the
law rather than Republican ideology.

The Democratic Party of Wisconsin is fully behind Judge Janet
Protasiewicz, the progressive candidate in this race. In keeping with
other recent high-stakes campaigns here, this is the most expensive state
Supreme Court race in American history, so we’ll need all the support we
can get to win tomorrow.

[ [link removed] ]That’s why I’m humbly asking you for help now so my team can win
this, John. Will you rush in a
donation of any amount to help WisDems defeat far-right extremism
tomorrow? »

Yours in the fight,
