Top House Democrat says liberal Supreme Court majority only path to revisit Wisconsin’s congressional maps
WPR ^ | March 25, 2025 | Rich Kremer

The top Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives says Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election is vital because the only way to challenge “gerrymandered” congressional voting maps is “if you have an enlightened Supreme Court” overseeing a legal challenge.

Republicans say it’s proof Democrats are planning to redraw maps if liberal Dane County Judge Susan Crawford wins on April 1. Crawford’s campaign says she’s never commented on congressional redistricting and the GOP is trying to distract from Elon Musk’s support for conservative Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel.

During a Democratic National Committee update Monday afternoon, New York House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries talked with DNC Chair Ken Martin about the importance of Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election next Tuesday. Martin said Democrats “have to win” it.

Jeffries elaborated on why.

“Because there are gerrymandered congressional lines right now in Wiscon

He cited the makeup of the state’s congressional delegation as proof. Jeffries said past election results show Wisconsin is a “50/50 state” in terms of support for Republican and Democratic candidates, “but there are six Republicans and only two Democrats out of an eight person delegation, because the lines are broken.”

While the Supreme Court election is technically nonpartisan, Jeffries referred to Crawford as a “strong Democratic candidate” and said the state’s congressional voting maps need to be revisited “as soon as possible.”sin,” Jeffries said.

There already is a liberal majority on SCOTUS: 2 Republicans, and 3 Democrats.

It's sort of mix 'n' match', like Coney Rabbit's family.

“enlightened”

Odd term to describe anti-American.

But Roberts says there are no Obama judges. Seem democrats believe there are liberal judges who rule based on idealogy and not the law.

What say you traitor Roberts, you friends sure belive otherwise.

I thought the congressional redistricting only happened throughout the country AFTER the next census in 2030?

Democrats up to their old tricks.

New districts in Wisconsin in time for the midterms in 2026.

We have 6 Republicans.

They can easily redraw the districts so the Democrats will be up +4.

Dane county borders the city of Madison. Use to live there. It was said that Madison was liberal but outside of it was conservative. Maybe compared to Madison but Dane is very liberal and this is evidence of it.

The bias is working in the USSC for them; why not Wisconsin, too?

The rats have poured 25 million dollars into this race. 80% of the hack Judges money has come from out of state. If the rat wins it will cost us 3-4 House seats while the GOP sleeps.

Elon Musk started to pay attention. Although it's a little bit late.

Donald Trump Jr., and Charlie Kirk rally for Brad Schimel in Wisconsin Supreme Court election

Need to do more.

Good thing the GOP turned a blind eye to the stolen House seats in CA — stolen weeks after the election.

Trump and Gop are getting wildly out Spent here
and in FL .

Trump stupidly took away a solid Gop seat and handpicked a
unknown Goper for this seat rather than having a local primary .
The Dems have spent 9million and Gop nothing .

We could lose this seat .

Trump has no strategy outside himself

and we will lose the midterms just like this .

Typically, the party that wins the White House will lose the midterms two years later.

Well hopefully, now that they’ve laid out their strategy, no matter who wins they won’t be able to pull off any redistricting.
