The 2025 Wisconsin Supreme Court election is scheduled for Tuesday, April 1, 2025, to elect a justice of the Wisconsin Supreme Court for a ten-year term. Incumbent justice Ann Walsh Bradley has indicated she will seek a fourth ten-year term.[1] Bradley has served on the court since 1995; if she wins the 2025 Supreme Court election and serves to the end of that term, she would become the second longest-serving justice in the history of the Wisconsin Supreme Court.[2][3] No incumbent justice has ever been defeated after previously having won a contested Wisconsin Supreme Court election.[1]
If more than two candidates file to run for this seat, a nonpartisan primary election will be held February 18, 2025, with the top two vote-getters advancing to the April 1 general election. The filing deadline to appear on the ballot in the 2025 election is January 1, 2025.
