Wisconsin Supreme Court primary election is on Feb. 21.

Divided Republican lawmakers attempt a referendum on an abortion ban and don't exactly like legislative redistricting maps submitted by Gov. Tony Evers.

Gov. Evers has said what he plans to do about those GOP efforts. Meanwhile, Gov. Evers appoints a longtime Milwaukee state senator to a judgeship, and the presidential campaign is already in full swing in the state.
