Kelly Exposes Challenger Karofsky's Shameful Lies and Dangerous Record

Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Daniel Kelly says his opponent, Dane County Circuit Court judge Jill Karofsky is a dangerous liar who is unfit for a seat on the Court.

"This is about the integrity of the Supreme Court," he told The Dan O'Donnell Show" on Wednesday. "This is about whether we're going to have a rule-of-law justice on the Court for the next ten years. This is about whether there's going to be a liar, a slanderer, and someone who's just received $1.3 million from the Democrats--$500 thousand from George Soros--to pursue her progressive politics on the Court, which is what she's promised to do."

Karofsky, widely regarded as one of the most liberal members of the extremely liberal Dane County court, said in December that she would "advocate for social justice issues" if elected to the Supreme Court just as she has on the Circuit Court.

Karofsky has been so dishonest about her record as a judge and in her attacks against Kelly that a majority of the Wisconsin Supreme Court took the extraordinary step of rebuking her and issuing a statement indicating that she is unfit for the bench.

“Attacks on the integrity of the court strike at the heart of the judicial system," Justices Annette Ziegler and Patience Roggensack said in an extraordinary rebuke. “Such language risks undermining the court’s legitimacy with parties, attorneys and the public."

“Her slanderous statements about Justice Kelly’s work on the Court are evidence of her lack of fitness for this bench,” added Justices Rebecca Bradley and Brian Hagedorn. “At no point has she actually engaged in a substantive critique of Justice Kelly’s opinions, reasoning or legal analysis. She simply casts aspersions based on the outcomes of cases, which evidences her own outcome-driven judicial approach.”

"She's promising to bring her politics to the Court, she's promising to be a social justice warrior on the Court," Kelly told "The Dan O'Donnell Show" on Wednesday. "It truly is unprecedented how disgraceful her behavior has been."
