On Saturday, former President Donald Trump addressed the Wisconsin State Supreme Court’s consideration of oral arguments in a case that could reshape the state’s electoral boundaries.
Democrats consistently argue that Wisconsin’s legislative district maps, initially established in 2011 during former Republican Gov. Scott Walker’s tenure, rank among the most aggressively gerrymandered in the nation.
Despite Democrats often prevailing in statewide elections, the Republican party has maintained a substantial majority in both chambers of the state legislature since the map’s inception.
Recently, the state Supreme Court underwent a shift, aligning with a liberal majority. This change led to heightened scrutiny and criticism from conservatives nationwide regarding the challenge to the existing map.
“Democrats fought to elect Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Janet Protasiewicz this spring so she could help them retake control of the state Legislature through a rewrite of the state’s political maps. Now the court’s liberal majority is going through contortions to deliver on that anti-democratic judicial promissory note,” the Wall Street Journal editorial board wrote in a piece titled “A Looming Judicial Coup in Wisconsin.”
Trump posted an excerpt from the editorial on Truth Social, criticizing the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s involvement in the case.
Expressing concern, he stated, “There is significant cheating happening in a state that I hold dear, Wisconsin. Republicans need to take action to halt it!”
Trump secured victory in Wisconsin during the 2016 presidential election but faced defeat in 2020. The state’s dynamics could wield substantial influence on the outcome of the 2024 election.
