Jennifer Dorow, Daniel Kelly, Everett Mitchell, and Janet Protasiewicz are running in the nonpartisan primary for an open seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court on February 21, 2023. The filing deadline was January 3, 2023. The top two vote-getters will advance to the nonpartisan general election on April 4, 2023. 

Justice Patience Roggensack's term will expire on July 31, 2023. Roggensack is not running for re-election.

While supreme court elections are officially nonpartisan, the court is considered to have a 4-3 conservative majority. With Roggensack—a member of the court's conservative majority—retiring, this election will determine the ideological control of the court. Heading into the 2020 election, the court had a 5-2 conservative majority.
