DLCC Priority: State Supreme Courts

Share

After a huge liberal win in Wisconsin, there are majority-deciding state supreme court races this November in Pennsylvania.

State supreme court races often have serious implications for the DLCC’s work because they rule on challenges to state legislative maps, claims of gerrymandering, and a host of policies that state legislatures decide, from abortion bans to workers’ rights. That’s why we’ve added the 2025 state supreme court races in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania to our target map.

There are no off-years for the DLCC. Cycle-over-cycle, we’ve invested in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin to build Democratic power and worked to highlight the stakes of past state supreme court races there. As the Trump administration dismantles Washington, these races in April and November provide voters in two key battleground swing states an opportunity to reject GOP power and strengthen the progressive firewall.

Liberal Victory in Wisconsin

All eyes were on Wisconsin on April 1st as voters weighed in on the first real statewide test of the Trump 2.0 era. Judge Crawford’s victory in this race has major implications for Democrats’ ability to compete on fair district maps.

Upcoming Races in Pennsylvania

This November’s state Supreme Court races in Pennsylvania will provide important clues about voters’ preferences as we prepare for highly competitive midterm elections, where the DLCC is fighting to protect our slim one-seat majority in the state House.
