In the Milwaukee Bar Association Judicial Poll chart listed on our March 24 Around the State page, the Qualified and Not Qualified headings accidentally appeared in the wrong order. That error reversed the results for candidates in the state Supreme Court race and the Milwaukee County Circuit Court – Branch 40 race.

According to the actual poll results, Justice Louis Butler received 429 votes for qualified and 52 votes for not qualified. Judge Michael Gableman received 119 votes for qualified and 198 votes for not qualified.

In the circuit court race, Court Commissioner Rebecca Dallet received 292 votes for qualified and 24 votes for not qualified. Attorney Jeffrey Norman received 83 votes for qualified and 114 for not qualified.

We apologize for the error.
