On April 1, 2025, Wisconsin voters will decide who will fill an open seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court—a decision that will shape the state’s legal landscape for years to come. While judicial elections are officially nonpartisan, the court has played a critical role in voting rights, abortion laws, workers’ protections, and redistricting—issues that directly impact Wisconsinites.
This election is expected to be the most expensive judicial race in U.S. history and could determine the balance of power on the court for the foreseeable future.
