The article reports that Wisconsin Appeals Court Judge Maria Lazar has become the first conservative candidate too enter the race for an open seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, following the announcement that incumbent conservative Justice Rebecca Bradley will not seek reelection. Lazar emphasized the need to stop the politicization of the courts and presented herself as an independent and impartial judge<\/a>.Another candidate in the race is Appeals Court Judge Chris taylor, a former Democratic state lawmaker. The upcoming 2026 Wisconsin Supreme Court election is expected to be less contentious than recent races,as it will not change the current ideological balance,with a liberal majority of 4-3 on the court. The primary election is scheduled for February 2026, with the general election on April 7, 2026. Recent Supreme Court races in Wisconsin have drawn meaningful spending and resulted in losses for conservative candidates.
