The candidates for state Supreme Court are largely mum about their views on key cases, but they have given clear signs showing incumbent Rebecca Bradley lines up with conservatives and challenger JoAnne Kloppenburg with liberals.
Bradley has repeatedly praised recently deceased conservative U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and his commitment to interpreting constitutional provisions as they were intended by the founders.
Kloppenburg has praised liberal U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, criticized Scalia’s approach in at least one case and questioned the state high court’s ruling last year upholding Wisconsin’s voter ID law.
