RELEASE: DLCC Spotlights Wisconsin Supreme Court Race & Maxes Out on Investment
WASHINGTON — Today, the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) designated Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Judge Chris Taylor as a Spotlight candidate ahead of her crucial race on April 7th. Flipping this seat would give liberals a 2-seat majority and guarantee liberal control of the court until at least 2030. The stakes are high as the court considers and shapes key issues affecting Wisconsinites, including redistricting.
That’s why DLCC is maxing out with a five-figure investment to the candidate ahead of this race. Breaking the conservative court majority in 2023 and defending it in 2025 were instrumental to ending over a decade of Republican gerrymandering that locked state legislative Democrats out of power. This Supreme Court race can help protect Democratic progress and set the tone heading into competitive races up and down the ticket in Wisconsin.
“Democrats are on the cusp of flipping the legislature in Wisconsin, but before we get to November, strengthening the liberal majority on the court is imperative to the future of power in this state. The opportunity to elect a liberal majority through 2030 has huge implications for everything from redistricting to personal rights and freedoms. The DLCC is all hands on deck to support Judge Chris Taylor’s election this spring as we gear up to flip the legislature and cement a brighter future for Wisconsinites in 2026.”
Judge Chris Taylor serves on the Wisconsin Court of Appeals and is running for the Wisconsin Supreme Court this April. Chris is a former Wisconsin State Assemblymember who has dedicated her career to protecting the rights of all people. If elected, Chris will bring that same dedication to Wisconsin’s highest court and strengthen the court’s pro-freedom, pro-democracy majority.
