Janet Protasiewicz May Be Impeached by GOP After Wisconsin Election Win

Janet Protasiewicz May Be Impeached by GOP After Wisconsin Election Win

So, you win an election to the state Supreme Court that gives liberals a 4-3 majority. Hey, not so fast there, lady! Don't you dare take that seat!

Quote:

Democrat-aligned Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Janet Protasiewicz scored a major victory on Tuesday as she secured election to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, but she could already be facing the prospect of impeachment.

Republican state senate candidate Dan Knodl suggested last week that he would be open to impeaching Protasiewicz if he were to win his own race. This would give the GOP a two-thirds majority in the Wisconsin senate. Knodl made those remarks before the elections took place.

Protasiewicz defeated Republican-backed Daniel Kelly, a former member of the state's supreme court. It was perhaps the most-watched election this year because of its possible effects on U.S. congressional districts and potential challenges to the 2024 presidential election.

The court will now have an effective 4-3 liberal majority. This could open the door to challenges to maps for the U.S. House of Representatives, which currently favor Republicans.
If there are any of you left who think that the GQP will respect the will of the voters when it doesn't favor them, think again!
