Dan Kelly would preserve judicial restraint in Wisconsin
The Wisconsin state Supreme Court race has frequently been called the most important election in 2023. I do not know whether that is true, but I do know that money tends to flow to the most significant political races, and the current race for Wisconsin’s high court has shattered the record for the most expensive judicial race in American history.
Character Makes Hagedorn the Best Candidate for the Supreme Court - RightWisconsin
In our tripartite system of government, the composition of our state supreme court is every bit as important as who occupies the governor’s mansion. While spring judicial races are often an afterthought to many voters, it would be a mistake to consider the upcoming election on April 2 as any less important than last November’s races for governor, attorney general, and the state legislature.
Michael Brennan deserves swift confirmation vote to 7th Circuit Court of Appeals | Column

Fernholz, Szafir: A worthy successor to Scalia
If past is prologue, Judge Gorsuch’s record gives us every assurance that he will be a jurist bound by the text of the Constitution. To many people — including those who disagreed with him — replacing Justice Antonin Scalia on the United States Supreme Court is a fool’s errand. In addition to his outsized personality and inimitable writing style, Scalia revolutionized the role of judges, making textualism and originalism mainstream methods of interpretation.
Court's reasoning in Obamacare case should concern everyone
In a case destined to live in infamy, the United States Supreme Court in King vs. Burwell rewrote federal law in order to accomplish the political goal of preserving the Affordable Care Act. While many are pleased with the outcome, the court's reasoning should concern everyone, regardless of political ideology.
