GOP group launches new ads seeking to turn out Trump voters for Schimel in Wisconsin race
A major Republican group is launching two new ads seeking to turn out Trump voters in an effort to elect conservative judicial candidate Brad Schimel in the high-stakes Wisconsin Supreme Court race.
The Republican State Leadership Committee's (RSLC) Judicial Fairness Initiative (JFI) rolled out the new advertising on Monday, which were first shared with The Hill.
The two ads are looking to encourage the same voters who cast ballots for President Trump last November to once again show up for an off-year spring election for Schimel, who is vying against liberal candidate Susan Crawford for an open seat on the high court.
Whoever wins the April 1 election will determine the partisan ideological balance on the court.
“What if you don’t vote on April 1st? It would be like Trump never won, with the far-left in control of our country,” says a narrator in part of the one 30-second ad, © The Hill
