Judge Janet Will Be Your Next WI Supreme Court Justice
$45 million dollars and nearly two million votes later, the election result is in: Milwaukee Judge Janet Protasiewicz will be the next Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice.
Liberal-backed justices will soon have four seats on the state’s high court and a slim majority. All eyes are now on Attorney General Josh Kaul’s lawsuit seeking to overturn the state’s 1849 abortion ban.
Bianca Martin and Dylan Brogan break down the big results from the election day.
