On Tuesday, Wisconsin had the most closely watched and hotly contested election in the nation between Judge Susan Crawford and Knee Pad Brad Schimel for the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
Schimel had the endorsement of the Felonious Kumquat. He had President Elmo dumping tens of millions of dollars into the race. He had an army of canvassers being shipped to the state for him.
All Crawford had was the people and that is all she needed:
Dane County judge Susan Crawford won a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court in a nationally watched election Tuesday, preserving the court’s left-leaning majority for at least three years and opening the door to further landmark rulings on abortion and labor rights.
Crawford’s victory over Waukesha County Circuit Court Judge Brad Schimel will be viewed as a rebuke of President Donald Trump and his top adviser, tech mogul Elon Musk, whose support was both a core part of Schimel’s campaign and the focus of Crawford’s attacks on her opponent.

The race was called by multiple outlets just before 9:15 p.m., at which point Crawford was besting former Vice President Kamala Harris’ performance in the 2024 election in many counties, ranging from Door County in northeast Wisconsin to the Madison area. Turnout in many parts of the state broke records for an April election.
