Oh my goodness. Come August, Wisconsin's Supreme Court will have its first liberal majority in fifteen years. This, with challenges to the 1849 abortion ban as well as possible redistricting reform on the line. Oh my goodness.

Here I was, expecting to be up all night waiting on razor thin margins to update, refreshing twitter like a fiend and tying myself in knots, and the AP race call hit at just about exactly 9 our time. On spotting the first news of the liberal win, which was then verified, I said, "Oooooh *already?!*"

:D!

I didn't think this would ever happen. I didn't honestly think we'd ever get here. I know what small towns and suburbs in Wisconsin are like. I well remember 2006's marriage referendum, to say nothing of 2016. And yet... here we are.

Semi-related, but not entirely so, [personal profile] ceitfianna, mind if I DM you about a thing?
