Wisconsin GOP looks to future, touts passage of Voter ID amendment, after election
Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel lost the election Tuesday to Susan Crawford, a liberal judge from Dane County, 55% to 45% (according to the most recent update available). After the defeat, the state’s Republican Party released a statement expressing disappointment with the results but looked to the future, specifically the 2026 election. The group also took solace over the Voter ID amendment on Tuesday’s ballot that did pass.
“This election was the most expensive Supreme Court race in history,” Wisconsin GOP Chairman Brian Schimming said in a release. “Coming off a successful November, we knew the April elections would be challenging. I want to thank Brad Schimel and Brittany Kinser, who stepped forward to represent our Conservative values on the ballot this spring.”
“Conservatives saw victories across the state,” Schimming added. “Wisconsin ensured its elections would remain secure by enshrining Voter ID in the Constitution and won many crucial local races. In 2026, we have the opportunity to remain united and make a stand against Tony Evers’ far-left agenda and defend President Trump’s America First policies.”
