Election for WISCONSIN SUPREME COURT The Wisconsin Supreme Court is supposed to be non-partisan. But here is what a recent flyer from Elon Musk’s super PAC says: • “Conservative Brad Schimel will support President Trump's agenda!” Is that non-partisan? NO! And at this time, President Trump’s agenda is being interpreted and carried out by Elon Musk- cuts to the VA, attacks on Social Security, freezing funds for farmers. . . . Many of Musk’s actions are deemed unconstitutional, but Brad Schimel supports that agenda. In contrast, Susan Crawford will act according to both the United States and the Wisconsin constitutions. She will protect the rights of all people, regardless of whether they are independents, Republicans, or Democrats and treat them all equally according to the constitution and the law. Let Elon Musk know that Wisconsin is not for sale. VOTE for SUSAN CRAWFORD APRIL 1 Cathy Mauer, Medford 166490
