Why are our State Supreme Court races so important?
- The Wisconsin Supreme Court has significant power and the people choose the justices who hold that power. The court hears roughly 60 cases each year and the seven justices on the court decide the policies that impact the freedoms we have as Wisconsinites.
- The justices who make up the Wisconsin Supreme Court have split ideologies, which means court decisions are often decided by just one vote.
- In the past, the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled on cases about voting maps, ballot drop boxes, COVID-19 emergency orders, the governor’s veto power and environmental protections.
- Future cases that will likely come before the court include the legality of the criminal abortion ban, the make-up of voting maps, election rules, environmental protections, LGBTQ+ rights, gun issues, and more.
- This election has long-term implications. The Supreme Court will likely take cases in the near future that have to do with voting rights, fair voting maps, abortion, climate regulations, and more. The decisions the justices make will have impacts on our state for generations.
- Wisconsin Supreme Court justices serve for 10 years. Their decisions will impact our children, and our children’s children.
- The court should be nonpartisan and maintain our system of checks and balances.
