MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Voters will choose between a Republican appointee, a Madison judge and a law professor as they narrow the field in a state Supreme Court primary Tuesday.
Conservative incumbent Justice Dan Kelly and liberal-leaning Jill Karofsky and Ed Fallone all are seeking a 10-year term on the court.
Then-Gov. Scott Walker appointed Kelly to the bench in 2016. Karofsky has served as a Dane County circuit judge since 2017. Fallone has taught law at Marquette University for 27 years.
The top two primary vote-getters advance to the general election in April.
