New from me on the Wisconsin Supreme Court election in @contrariannews.org: Musk is spending big on the race even as he voices contempt for the very idea of an independent judiciary. contrarian.substack.com/p/a-test-for...

Kansas voters might get to decide in 2026 whether to keep their merit-based judicial selection system or move to judicial elections for the state supreme court. Opponents are worried about increased partisanship and dark money in campaigns (like in Wisconsin).

As money pours into the Wisconsin Supreme Court race from Elon Musk, George Soros, political parties, and others, it's a good time to revisit our explainer on judicial recusal from 2023. Bottom line: campaign contributions usually don't require recusal. statedemocracy.law.wisc.edu/featured/202...
