Wisconsin’s Supreme Court will keep its narrow liberal majority after Dane County Circuit Judge Susan Crawford eased to victory in one of the most closely-watched state judicial races in years — and the most expensive of all time. The Democrat-backed Crawford’s win over GOP-supported Waukesha County Circuit Judge Brad Schimel in the officially nonpartisan election will give liberals a 4-3 majority on the seven-member court for at least three more years — during which Democrats are expected to push to redraw the state’s congressional district lines to punish Republicans and challenge a law enacted by former GOP Gov. Scott Walker that stripped most state government workers of collective bargaining rights.
