Another radical abortion activist is heading to the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
Democrat appeals court Judge Chris Taylor won election to the Wisconsin Supreme Court on Tuesday, expanding the leftist majority on the state’s highest court to 5-2 and alarming pro-life advocates who fear further erosion of protections for unborn children.
Taylor defeated fellow appeals court Judge Maria Lazar in the race for a 10-year term, receiving about 60% of the vote to Lazar’s roughly 40% with most ballots counted, according to unofficial results.
Media outlets projected Taylor’s victory shortly after polls closed.
The open seat resulted from the retirement of conservative Justice Rebecca Bradley. Taylor’s win locks in liberal control of the court through at least 2030.
Taylor previously served nearly a decade as public policy director for Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin, where she helped the abortion business get more laws to let it kill more babies, and as a Democratic state legislator.
Her campaign received more than $100,000 from Planned Parenthood, and advertisements prominently featured her work with the abortion company. Taylor has described those pro-abortion values as “really deeply ingrained in me, not just because I worked for Planned Parenthood, but as a lawyer, as a former legislator, as a mother.”
As a legislator, Taylor opposed a bill that would have capped abortions at 20 weeks, arguing it was acceptable to end the lives of viable unborn babies. She voted against measures banning abortions based on the sex or disability of the unborn child and did not support legislation requiring care for infants born alive after failed abortions.
Pro-life leaders had warned that her record demonstrates a radical commitment to abortion on demand, including positions critics describe as supporting abortion up to birth.
Lazar charged that Taylor’s values include “abortion up to birth” along with other left-wing priorities she could not advance through the legislature. Lazar accused Taylor of seeking to “legislate from the bench.” Taylor rejected the activist label during a debate, saying, “I never have said I’m an activist, that I’m an advocate on the bench.”
Pro-life advocates expressed deep concern that Taylor’s deep ties to the abortion industry and her consistent legislative opposition to even modest protections for the unborn signal she would prioritize radical abortion activism over impartial justice on the Supreme Court.
Wisconsin Supreme Court races, though officially nonpartisan, have drawn national attention due to the court’s influence on issues including abortion.

Heartbreaking.
No one was even talking about this race.
10 years ago, everyone across the country would have been - every talk radio show, numerous posts on the conservative forums urging people get out to vote and to contact everyone you know in Wisconsin, etc.
Nothing said now. Our side pays no attention to these elections and the Left just chips away at our country under the surface.
Republicans are asleep at the wheel.
I don’t even have to look it up - many of us here could say the same. Prosser and Kloppenberg were the candidates. Kloppenberg declared victory when she actually had lost - more than enough votes were out to overturn the razor-thin margin yet she still had a press conference declaring victory and the vote totals probably shifted against her while her “victory” remarks were ongoing.
I remember that live thread on the election night...and we had been talking about that race regularly for weeks if not months - so were all of the talk shows.
I misspelled her name - apparently it is Kloppenburg - but just look at the volume of threads with just her name in the keywords:

That’s an illustration of how tuned in conservatives used to be to races like this.
ok, so Wisconsin is lost.
The abortion issue is the single biggest obstacle for conservatives getting into office. If we lose the republic, it will be because conservatives chose to die on this issue. And die will we all. Not just unborn babies.
Maybe or maybe the election fraud is bad a blue piece of wood would beat any republican in that state.
Destruction of America continues....couldn’t the good people at least throw a protest?..anything?
No, it is because conservatives aren’t even bothering to pay attention anymore.
Trump has carried it twice, Ron Johnson has been elected there multiple times, the GOP controls the legislature by solid margins, it has at least a history of electing GOP governors, etc. It isn’t *that* blue of a state.
I did not say it was blue; I said election fraud.
Looks like people in WI are either too lazy to show up to defeated hardened leftists or they approve of pro-criminal court rulings. People in WI can’t seem to get enough of Democrats despite Senator Johnson and a few House members.
If you look at the numbers through out history, the most far leftwing communist candidates are elected by women. I would say that at least 70% of women voters lean left to far left. They want government to control every waking moment of their lives.
The downfall and collapse of the USA started with the 19th amendment. I am not saying NO woman should be allowed to vote but at least it should be restricted to those who own property (or have something to lose when making bad decisions). Also voting should only be made by those who are productive citizens (NOT those on welfare, prison or nursing homes).
But alas, I see this as too late. The USA (like all empires) will eventually collapse from within. Plan accordingly.
Blaming fraud and abortion every time a R loses an election is tiresome.
It’s also - usually - off the mark.
As it is here.
The problem is R folks dislike the reality, because it conflicts with their emotions.
Trump was elected on promises of economic growth, price stability, secure borders, and no neocon wars for jollies. And that he’s not a globalist or communist.
We have 1, sort of. 2 has been obliterated due to Trump turning his back on 4 which in turn has called 5 into question. 6 is in tact though his quasi-nationalization of certain firms is a problem. 3 is progressing but it has motivated the shrill, white, over-educated class of the left, and that lot will turn out by the bushel to vote.
Republicans are getting throttled in almost every special election, by margins exceeding the Trump-Harris margin. It’s backsliding because a) Trump’s base isn’t as motivated as the ICE protesters, b) the youths who came out for him in 2024 are peeved as they face war-driven inflation and volatility in the market for new jobs, c) centrists and youths staying home as they wonder how the guy who swore off foreign entanglements suddenly became a neocon, and is now stuck in the Middle East over a country that can’t deliver water to the residents of Tehran but - pinky-swear - they can nuke America from 7,000 miles away. Oh, and the Admin is saying the same Iranian navy we “decimated” is still blocking the Straight. Meet the new boss…
R voters had hope in 2016 when he beat Hillary, and were disgusted when Biden took charge. He came back into power in 2024 on the backs of those supporters.
And yet, in 15 months - technically the last 2 - he blew that incremental support to smithereens. And not that anyone really cares about morality any more, posting the F word on social media on Easter…really dude?
THAT is reality. If R want to avoid 2 years of impeachment, hearings, subpoenas, etc., they need to exit Iran yesterday, let other nations deal with that dumpster fire, and focus on the home front.
and alarming pro-life advocates who fear further erosion of protections for unborn children.
How about getting fellow republicans to vote in special elections?
I doubt it. Same state just voted for Trump a little more than a year ago.
They are absolutely worthless without Trump. These must be The Republicans Megan Kelly identifies with.
We don’t have to make a fight about it. I just call Leftist women “Baby Killers”. That’s what defines and unites them you know
Public shaming of immoral behavior used to be a thing
