flag Conservative judge Maria Lazar challenges liberal judge Chris Taylor in key Wisconsin Supreme Court race.

flag Conservative Wisconsin appeals court judge Maria Lazar has launched her campaign for an open seat on the state Supreme Court, positioning herself as an impartial jurist committed to reducing political influence after record-breaking spending in recent elections fueled by billionaire donors. flag She faces liberal appeals court judge Chris Taylor in a pivotal April election that could shape the court’s balance, currently 4-3 in favor of liberals. flag Lazar, a former prosecutor and appointee of Democratic Gov. flag Tony Evers, emphasizes her independence despite past work defending controversial laws, including Act 10 and abortion restrictions. flag Taylor’s campaign has raised over $1 million, giving him a financial edge, while Lazar’s campaign has not yet matched that level of funding. flag The outcome may impact key issues like abortion rights, collective bargaining, redistricting, and election laws.
