Brief
State Appeals Judge Pedro Colón is reported to be planning a bid for the state Supreme Court to join the liberal majority; @philipthedude (2026-04-23) doubts Colón's chances this cycle and suggests he may instead run against Justice Hagedorn in 2029, arguing Hagedorn is unbeatable by the left. Lyndsey Brunette announced a campaign the prior week.
Why it matters
Author @philip_the_dude (posted 2026-04-23) says he likes State Appeals Judge Pedro Colón but doesn't think Colón has much chance in the current (2026) Supreme Court race and predicts Colón will either run this cycle or challenge Justice Hagedorn in 2029.
Key details
- The author asserts no one from the left can defeat Justice Hagedorn and argues the left should not challenge him; reporter Molly Beck tweeted that Colón is planning to enter the state Supreme Court race to join the court's liberal majority, and Clark County Circuit Judge Lyndsey Brunette announced a campaign the week before 2026-04-23.
