Wisconsin GOP looks to oust newly appointed Supreme Court Justice Protasiewicz
==============================================================================


 

John, while the victory in Wisconsin this spring was a much-needed one for liberals in the state, the GOP looks to derail any progress by considering impeaching Judge Janet Protasiewicz who won by an 11-point lead. 

From *The Badger Project*, ***“Before she even took her seat, at least one Republican floated the idea of impeaching and removing Protasiewicz. The GOP has the needed simple majority in the state Assembly and a supermajority in the state Senate to do so, but is only allowed to impeach government officials for “corrupt conduct in office, or for crimes and misdemeanors,” according to the Wisconsin Constitution.” ***

Her crime, according to the state's Republicans? Believing that gerrymandered maps are unfair in their representation. Wisconsin has been characterized as one of the **most gerrymandered maps in the nation**, and the GOP has wasted no time defending those maps despite calls from Democrats for fairer representation. 

According to Vox, on the upcoming case *Clarke v. Wisconsin Elections Commission*: ***"Wisconsin’s [gerrymandered maps are] so aggressive that it is practically impossible for Democrats to gain control of the state legislature. In 2018, for example, Democratic state assembly candidates received 54 percent of the popular vote in Wisconsin, but Republicans still won 63 of the assembly’s 99 seats[.]"***
