(MADISON-WTMJ) In Tuesday’s Wisconsin Supreme Court race, Democratic-backed Chris Taylor, a former state lawmaker who also worked for Planned Parenthood, faced Republican-supported Maria Lazar. Both Taylor and Lazar currently serve as state Appeals Court judges.
Liberals took control of the state’s top court in 2023, ending 15 years under a conservative majority. They held onto their majority with last year’s victory in a race that drew involvement from President Donald Trump and billionaires George Soros and Elon Musk, who personally handed out $1 million checks to voters in the state.
