John,

In six days Wisconsin could become a red state for the foreseeable future—a far cry from where it was when Democrats could often count on the state’s electoral votes for the presidency—OR … we can help rebalance the state judiciary after years of Republican mismanagement. 
 
On February 21st, there's a first round of elections for an open Wisconsin Supreme Court seat--a top two primary for a seat vacated by a conservative judge. If two Democrats win the primary, we can guarantee that the court adds another jurist who cares about democracy and women’s rights.

To recap from a previous email we sent:
 
With a right winger leaving Wisconsin's Supreme Court, we must elect a Democrat. There's an open primary Feb. 21st with two Democrats and two Republicans. If Dems run first and second, we guarantee a win in April's general election. At the very least, we must stop both Republicans from winning the 21st, shutting us out of the general election.
 

Meanwhile, The Wisconsin Democratic Party just shared:

We just got word MAGA Republican-aligned candidate Jennifer Dorow just placed a $60,000 ad buy.

 

 

A liberal Supreme Court majority will overturn Wisconsin's radical abortion ban and insane gerrymandering that delivered Kevin McCarthy a House majority. It'll President Biden in 2024 from what Republicans tried in '20 and promised to do again--use state legislatures and courts to steal the election.

Can you join us in rushing $5, $10, $25 or whatever you can to Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice candidates Everett Mitchell & Janet Protasiewicz. It's hard to think of any race having more on the line.

Thank you for fighting for democracy in Wisconsin and America!

Cliff

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
