"Democrats Harness Wisconsin High Court's Liberal Majority for Abortion and Redistricting Victories"

Democrats in Wisconsin are hopeful that the upcoming liberal majority in the state's Supreme Court will lead to the overturning of the abortion ban and the redrawing of maps to weaken GOP control. The Democratic Party spent $8 million to secure a liberal majority on the court, with the election of Janet Protasiewicz. However, there are no guarantees, as conservative candidates have sometimes sided with liberal justices in the past. In addition to abortion and redistricting, liberals are also considering challenges to school choice, voter ID laws, and other Republican-backed legislation.
