The balance of Wisconsin's state supreme court will shift slightly more liberal in a major upset win for Democrats after Republicans prevented them from postponing the election due to the coronavirus.

Several news outlets called last week's Wisconsin supreme court justice election for Jill Karofsky, a liberal, rather than incumbent conservative justice Daniel Kelly.

That shifts the power balance of the state's highest court from a 5-2 conservative majority to a 4-3 conservative majority.

Republican lawmakers blocked Democratic Gov. Tony Evers from postponing the state's elections last week or moving it to fully vote-by-mail due to the coronavirus, making for long lines of voters wearing protective face gear at a reduced number of polling places. When the governor on Monday tried a last-ditch effort to delay the primary to June 9 via executive order, the state Supreme Court blocked him from doing so.

The Democratic victory in Wisconsin tonight tells you something important. Even in a low turnout environment where COVID-19 scares hell out voters, Dem intensity trumps R intensity. The GOP is going to get absolutely killed in November.

Yeah, butt there might have been some vote harvesting going on. Apparently over 11,000 absentee ballots were received after April 8, with 9900 were postmarked April 7th or before. Many of the 2000 did not have postmarks or the postmarks were illegible. By law they should not have been counted butt they were.
