(WGTD)---Primarily two things were on the minds of most speakers at the annual picnic/campaign fundraiser held Sunday by conservative Kenosha County Board Chairman Gabe Nudo: The 2024 presidential election, and the 2025 spring election in Wisconsin when another state supreme court seat goes up for grabs.
Addressing the latter was current Supreme Court Justice Rebecca Bradley, whose conservative faction recently became the court minority with the election last spring of Janet Protasiewicz. "We have a majority of justices on the Wisconsin Supreme Court who view their role as a super legislature," Bradley said. "We do have an opportunity to turn this around and to take back our court in the name of the constitution, freedom and liberty," she said.
The first opportunity, she said, is the spring election in 2025 when Justice Ann Walsh Bradley's term expires.
Addressing the upcoming presidential election was Texas Congressman Troy Nehls, an unabashed Donald Trump supporter. "I know there are some here that don't necessarily like Donald Trump. I understand. I got it. There are some good candidates out there," Nehls said. "But right now Donald Trump is clobbering them all. He's going to be our nominee."
Other speakers included former Attorney General Brad Schimel, former unsuccessful attorney general candidate Eric Toney, Appeals Court Justice Maria Lazar and Kenosha County Sheriff Dave Zoerner.
About 150 people attended the event which was held at Somers Memorial Park.
