Join the Campaign
Hello, Wisconsin.
We need to stop the destruction of our courts — especially our State Supreme Court. I am Court of Appeals Judge Maria S. Lazar, and I am asking for your vote in April 2026.
I am an independent, impartial judge who follows the law and Constitution in every decision I make. It is time to restore that dedication to the Court — and that is precisely why I’m running.

Why I am Running
Ethics First.
I will never campaign on how I would rule in future cases. Instead, I’ll share my record, my decision-making process, and my commitment to fairness.
Free From Partisan Politics.
I’ve never been appointed to the bench — I’ve earned every seat through the will of the people.
For the People.
I’ll be campaigning across the state, listening to citizens in every community, not just partisan strongholds.
This campaign is about restoring fair, impartial justice to a Court that should stand above politics.

The Clear Choice in 2026
A Judge, Not a Politician.
Judge Lazar became a judge after a long legal career. Her opponent has always been a politician first.
Fair, Independent, and Impartial.
She is not a member of any political party. She serves only the law, the Constitution, and the people.
Dedicated to the Rule of Law.
Wisconsin deserves justices who interpret the law as written — not to advance political agendas.
