It’s Spring Election day in Wisconsin today with a few contested city, village, county and school board races in Grant, Layfayette, and Iowa counties.
Polls are open from 7 this morning until 8 this evening.
Statewide voters will choose a new state Supreme Court justice in an election that will either maintain or expand the court’s liberal majority. State Appeals Court judges Chris Taylor and Maria Lazar are running to replace retiring Justice Rebecca Bradley from the court’s conservative bloc. Taylor is a former Democratic state representative who has endorsements from the court’s four sitting liberal justices. Lazar served as assistant state attorney general under former Republican Gov. Scott Walker.
