I plan to vote for Judge Michael Gableman Tuesday in the race for state Supreme Court.
If you want a tough, law and order judge on the Suprme Court, Gableman is the clear choice. Gableman is a former district attorney supported by the Wisconsin Fraternal Order of Police and over 170 police chiefs, sheriffs, district attorneys, and other judges across the state.
Gableman's opponent is Louis Butler, a former public defender who was appointed to the Wisconsin Supreme Court by Governor Doyle after he lost an election to Diane Sykes for Supreme Court.
The Wisconsin Republican Party says, “Butler's decisions since he has been on the court clearly demonstrate that he has been no friend to law enforcement or crime victims. Butler has cast the deciding vote to reverse murder and sexual assault convictions, suppress evidence in another murder case, limit the ability of the police to investigate crimes and overturn a law that gave prosecutors the ability to block the early release of violent criminals, sex offenders and drug dealers.Butler's votes on the court have clearly made Wisconsin communities less safe and have allowed criminals to escape justice.”
I agree and will be voting for Gableman Tuesday.
