There\u2019s nothing funny about the Wisconsin GOP putting lives at risk<\/a> in an effort to cling to their power. It is, however, hilarious they managed to score an own goal by doing it.<\/p>\n

Liberal Dane County Judge Jill Karofsky has pulled off a major upset<\/a>, beating her far-right opponent Daniel Kelly by a hefty margin. Obviously, this is a good thing because Justice Kelly sucks. He\u2019s an old homophobe<\/a> whose absence from the bench will be a plus for the whole state. More encouragingly, it could serve as a harbinger for the general election in November. If Wisconsin \u2014 which Esquire<\/em>\u2019s Charles P. Pierce has only half-jokingly called a Koch subsidiary<\/a> \u2014 can reject conservatism, there\u2019s hope for the rest of the nation<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n

But in the meantime, let us celebrate like Justice-elect Karofsky: keeping a healthy distance from our friends and neighbors, with a case of New Glarus beer on hand.<\/span>\n

\n
\n

I want to send a heartfelt thank you to the hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites who made their voice heard in this unprecedented election.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m honored to have earned the trust of people across this state who believe in a tough, fair, and independent judiciary and I promise to never forget these principles as your Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice.<\/p>\n
