In abortion-focused Wisconsin Supreme Court race, other issues start taking precedent

Dan Kelly, a former Wisconsin Supreme Court justice, faces Democratic-backed Janet Protasiewicz, a Milwaukee County judge, on April 4.

The winner will determine majority control of the court, with the fate of abortion access, legislative redistricting, voting rights, rules for elections and other major issues at stake.

Kelly and his supporters have been outspent nearly 2-to-1 since the Feb. 21 primary.

Kelly downplayed his work for Republicans, saying he also had clients on the left but declined to name them.
