Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election will have a significant impact in 2024. Here’s why:
Imagine a hypothetical scenario where the 2024 presidential election is extremely close. Wisconsin could make-or-break our chances of electing a Democratic President. Here’s an example:

Picture this: First, the Republican presidential candidate has an early lead in Wisconsin but thousands of absentee ballots have yet to be counted—especially in Milwaukee County, one of the most Democratic counties in the state.
Then, the Supreme Court issues a ruling at 10 pm on Election Day to stop absentee counting based on unverified GOP claims. It comes down to a 4-3 decision with Dan Kelly, the WisGOP’s former “election integrity advisor,” as the deciding vote.
A 4-3 decision, with Dan Kelly as the decider, would not only stall voting—it might leave thousands of ballots uncounted or thrown out. The Court would hand Trump or DeSantis (or any Republican) the victory in this hypothetical, but also possible, scenario.
Folks across the country in places like Pennsylvania would watch in despair. You and I would think back to this Supreme Court election in 2023 where we had a chance to defeat Dan Kelly and elect a pro-democracy justice like Janet Protasiewicz.
We can’t let a hypothetical scenario like this play out — and it won’t if Judge Janet Protasiewicz wins this election. Can you chip in $5 right now to help WisDems and The Long Run to defeat Dan Kelly and prevent this nightmare scenario from ever becoming reality?
Your support will propel our victory-winning operation forward, help elect progressives like Janet Protasiewicz, and prevent this hellish outcome. Thank you.
