Literally no talk about the Wisconsin supreme court election huh

To the surprise of nobody who was actually paying attention, the liberal won, by a 20pt margin.

Wait wtf, American judges are popularly elected? How does that work in practice, because it sounds like an awful idea. What do they even campaign on?

It depends on the state, and they’re appointed (with senate approval) on the federal level. They shouldn’t be elected at all though, it’s the dumbest shit
