Sucker Posted March 31 Report Posted March 31 On Tuesday, Wisconsin voters will go to the polls to decide if Trump-backed judge Brad Schimel or liberal circuit court judge Susan Crawford will fill the vacated seventh seat on the state’s Supreme Court. Wisconsin, Florida voters are up next in 2025: What to know. Savannah Kuchar USA TODAY More than 150 million Americans cast a ballot in last year's marquee election that put President Donald Trump back in the White House and saw Democrats in Congress suffer serious setbacks. While 2025 may be more subdued in comparison, the year is not lacking for key races with national significance. A series of special elections in a handful of states has seen down-on-their-luck Democrats faring well, including flipping state Senate seats in Iowa and Pennsylvania. More: Trump's dream scenario: Republicans win control of House and Senate in Congress sweep “That ought to energize Democrats that there’s still some life left in the party, despite them being kind of at sea in Washington,” said Barry Burden, a political science professor and director of the Elections Research Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The outcome has Democrats feeling good, but experts say the real tests are yet to come, starting with a heated Wisconsin state Supreme Court race Tuesday and a pair of special elections for U.S. House seats in northern Florida to fill vacancies created during the Trump transition. In November, voters in Virginia and New Jersey will also be tasked with picking new governors, as the incumbents in both states face term limits. Here’s what to know about this year’s roundup of key elections. Next up: Wisconsin and Florida On Tuesday, Wisconsin voters will go to the polls to decide if Trump-backed judge Brad Schimel or liberal circuit court judge Susan Crawford will fill the vacated seventh seat on the state’s Supreme Court. Florida also has two big races on the ballot Tuesday: One special election will fill the U.S. House seat vacated by Matt Gaetz, who resigned in November when Trump nominated him to be attorney general; the winner of the other will be the replacement for Mike Waltz, who left Congress to become Trump’s national security adviser. Both Sunshine State districts favor Republicans, though recent reports show the GOP candidates lagging in fundraising and Democratic leaders are making noise like they could score an upset. “I think we’re going to overperform expectations,” in Florida, Ken Martin, the chair of the Democratic National Committee, told USA TODAY. “And there’s certainly a chance we could win.” On Friday, Trump acknowledged Democrats are outspending Republican candidates in Florida by many multiples. “So the airwaves are blanketed, and you never know what happens in a case like that," the president told reporters in the Oval Office. In Wisconsin, the race to determine whether the state's highest court leans liberal or conservative on issues from abortion to redistricting has become an expensive one. Elon Musk, billionaire and Trump ally, has put about $20 million toward boosting Schimel. Spending from the two parties combined has already broken records for the country’s most expensive court race and could exceed $100 million. Quote

Aren’t the judges expected to be neutral and just follow the law? it's the principle that everyone should be answerable. Only exemption to this I think is Supreme court. Quote
