Thankfully, Prosser is already in office. This can't be negated. If it can get dragged out to when his term ends in August, then the Dem Secretary of State can declare the seat vacant, and the court will be split 4-4.

and the court will be split 4-4 My error. The WI court has 7 justices, so it would be 3-3. But the Chief Justice is a Dem.

And I don't think something like this will be dragged out that long on a state level. Besides, most election issues are expedited in court because of the exigency of knowing the winner a.s.a.p. The Supreme Ct worked at break-neck speed for the FL 2000 recount issue, after all.
