After a run of candidates entering other races across the state, like governor and state Senate, you now have another option for the Wisconsin State Supreme Court. District 2 Appellate Judge Maria Lazar announced her candidacy for the state’s high court in her chase to replace outgoing Justice Rebecca Bradley, who declined to run for another 10-year term. According to The Hill, Lazar previously served as a circuit court judge in Waukesha County and as an assistant attorney general under former state Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen. Although the Wisconsin State Supreme Court is a non-partisan position, Lazar represents an option for conservatives to back after former Democratic state lawmaker and current appellate Judge Chris Taylor entered the race earlier this year. In her video introduction to voters, Lazar says she is an independent-minded judge who follows the law and the Constitution, adding that “this is a campaign to restore justice to our Supreme Court, not to place a partisan politician into a robe and on a court that stands atop our judicial system.” There is still time for other candidates to enter the race before the spring primary trims the field on February 17th, ahead of the general election on April 7th.
