GOP-Aligned Wisconsin Supreme Court Candidate Likened Gay Sex To Bestiality

The Republican-backed candidate in the April Wisconsin Supreme Court election has previously written that the Supreme Court striking down anti-sodomy laws was akin to legalizing bestiality, Planned Parenthood is a “wicked organization” devoted to “killing babies,” and the NAACP is a “disgrace to America.”


Those were among the writings on nominee Brian Hagedorn’s blog “Anno Domini” dug up by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel for an investigation published Thursday.

Hagedorn, a former legal counsel to recently ousted Gov. Scott Walker (R), is running against the liberal-aligned appeals court judge Lisa Neubauer in a closely-watched campaign that Wisconsin Democrats see as key to flipping the court’s majority in their favor. While state Supreme Court elections are technically non-partisan, they’ve transformed into expensive proxy partisan battles in recent years.

“This race is about everything—it’s about redistricting, it’s about having a balance in our state,” local Democratic operative Patrick Guarasci told TPM in a recent interview.
