thread_title: File:WisconsinSupremeCourtSeal.gif Nominated for Deletion

message: It feels a little wrong to identify the Justices as "Conservative" or "Liberal" as if it were official. Sure it's de facto, but their ideology isn't something that should be codified. You get what I mean? I may be alone on this but wanted to mention it at least. Nevermore27 (talk) 04:19, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Liberal/Conservative 

message: In recent years, particularly in the 2022 election, there was extensive coverage about the Wisconsin Supreme Court and how dark money poured into the relatively obscure judicial elections is keeping the court conservative, allowing gerrymandering legislation to pass, which in turn results in the entire state having a lower democracy score than the Congo. This article mentions none of that.
