GREEN LAKE, Wis. — Former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Dan Kelly lost a bid to return to the Court by 10 percentage points and conceded – but utterly without grace. Kelly called called the campaign of his opponent, Janet Protasiewicz “deeply deceitful, dishonorable and despicable.” He went on in his concession speech: “I wish that in a circumstance like this, I would be able to concede to a worthy opponent. But I do not have a worthy opponent to which I can concede.” Kelly, an ever-Trumper, drew $16.6 million for his campaign mostly from out-of-state Republican donors who sought to keep the battleground state on its conservative course.
