Challenger Jill Karofsky Ousts Incumbent Daniel Kelly In Race For Wisconsin Supreme Court Seat

A massive upset. Reid Epstein, reporting for The New York Times:

The victory, by upward of 120,000 votes as of Monday night, came as a shock to Republicans and Democrats alike in Wisconsin, where the most recent contests for president, governor and the state’s high court have each been decided by about 30,000 votes or less.

We could spend a lot of time analyzing the politics of this outcome and what it may mean for the general election in November, as well as who the more deserving candidate was based on personal ideology. But if we take the political parties out of it, one thing we should be able to agree on is this: any true American patriot ought to love seeing an underdog story in which the will of the people triumphs over attempted voter suppression by corrupt, powerful elites.
