MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Republicans and Democrats fighting for control of Wisconsin’s Supreme Court will get a sense of how energized their sides are with the start of early in-person voting for the hotly contested race.
Tuesday’s start of early voting comes two weeks before the April 1 election between Republican-backed Brad Schimel and Democratic-supported Susan Crawford. The winner will determine whether conservative or liberal justices control Wisconsin’s highest court as it faces cases over abortion and reproductive rights, the strength of public sector unions, voting rules and congressional district boundaries.
The race has drawn the attention of President Donald Trump’s adviser Elon Musk.
