Clark County (D) judge tells WisPolitics she's passing on Supreme Court bid in '26
Clark County Judge Lyndsey Boon Brunette is passing on a run for state Supreme Court next year, telling WisPolitics in a statement that 2026 “is not the best time to pursue a seat on the state’s highest court.”
Boon Brunette was elected DA for the central Wisconsin county as a Dem in 2012, serving one term. Then she ran for an open circuit court seat in 2018, winning with 76.4% of the vote, and was reelected in 2024 without opposition.
Boon Brunette said she’s been humbled for the support she’s received while she weighed a bid.
“While 2026 isn’t the right moment, I believe strongly that the future holds new chances to lead and serve—and I’ll be ready when the time comes,” she said.
