VIDEO TRANSCRIPT
Justice Rebecca Bradley:
I think with Judge Crawford's win, we're gonna see a continued politicization of the judiciary. And unfortunately, over the last couple of terms, my four liberal colleagues have ruled uniformly with the Democratic Party, which is why you saw this money come in. So I think, unfortunately, we're going to see more of the same, and it's a very sad day for the judiciary in the state of Wisconsin. But also, it's really an embarrassment nationally, because this is not what judges are supposed to do. We're supposed to decide cases under the law regardless of who the parties are or whether we like the outcome or not, and that's how my colleagues are doing. So unfortunately, I think we're going to continue to see money pouring into these races with a political agenda on the left that they have simply been unsuccessful advancing in the state of Wisconsin with the voters through the political process, which is where it's supposed to be.
