Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Joe Donald today announced his endorsement of Judge JoAnne Kloppenburg for Wisconsin Supreme Court.

“Judge Kloppenburg is the most qualified candidate in this race. She shares my commitment to equal justice under the law, to an independent judiciary and to ensuring the Supreme Court is the people’s court. I also appreciate that her campaign is based on hope not fear: she is running because she believes deeply in the power of the law and our courts to make our communities and our State a better place for all our citizens,” Judge Donald said. “I look forward to doing all I can to help elect her as the next Justice on our Supreme Court.”

“I am honored by Judge Donald’s trust and confidence,” said Judge Kloppenburg. “In the vigorous primary campaign we just had, he raised critically important issues, eloquently and with great insight. He has provided strong leadership on racial disparities and criminal justice reform and I look forward to working with him to focus attention and move the ball forward on those fundamental issues.”

The non-partisan election for Supreme Court Justice will be held on Tuesday, April 5.
