    Legit question: don’t we lose here anyway because judicial seats are supposed to be non partisan?

      Judicial seats haven’t been non partisan for 30 years, back when the federalist society started pushing lists of approved GOP judges.

        That’s at the federal level. Wisconsin supreme court justices are elected for 10 year terms, and are officially non-partisan. In practice, everyone knows that the candidates are supported by one party or the other.
