Schimel (R), Crawford (D) on 'UpFront' make closing arguments ahead of tomorrow's election

Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel, the former Republican attorney general backed by conservatives, is pushing Donald Trump supporters to the polls in the final hours of campaigning.

“It’s a turnout race,” the Waukesha County judge said on WISN’s “UpFront,” which is produced in partnership with WisPolitics. “It’s going back to Nov. 5 and getting conservative voters to understand why this is important. If we get 60% of the people who voted for President Trump to come out April 1 and vote for me, in all likelihood that means I win.”

Schimel said he talked with both Trump and Elon Musk ahead of Trump’s official endorsement....

Crawford, who was recently endorsed by former President Barack Obama, said she hasn’t spoken with him, but she “appreciates his interest in the race.”

“We need a great turnout,” Crawford added, looking ahead to Tuesday. “I’m really excited to hear that the early voting has been pretty robust throughout the state. I’m traveling around the state, hitting as many communities as we can to continue to encourage early voting and on Election Day voting for those who missed the deadline to early vote. But I just want to make sure that people understand what’s at stake here.”
