it was not even close.  she is going to win by double digits.

this was supposed to be close.  this race cost $45M+

i guess abortion is more important than Trump.

what a surprise.

This is so good for Wisconsin.   Maybe the tide is turning for the state.  

[Tennesseer]

Good to read this.  Thanks, DJ.  Some pundits have stated this election may be harbinger of the 2024 elections.

[djAdvocate]

again, this was supposed to be close.
the pundits were saying it would be "a couple of points".

like the Chicago Mayor race.

[irishpad]

More of the rural votes are coming in which is making it a little closer.   With 88% of expected votes, it is 55% - 45%   Still a thumping

[djAdvocate]

i think "double digits" is going to hold.   only 3/4 of the Milwaukee vote is in.

[irishpad]

Good point, I didn't notice that and it's a 70/30 split in Milwaukee.   Did you see Dade?   81/19.   Now that is a spanking.  Don't piss off those college kids.

This is what happens when you have nothing to offer the country except a washed-up reality star has been!

Very glad about this. Everyone was talking about how this was a make or break election.

Has a Republican squealed ‘stolen election’ yet?

Since apparently any election they didn’t win is now ‘stolen?’

Republican backed Daniel Knodl said he would be open to impeaching the new judge even before the election took place.

GOP has a two thirds majority in the Wisconsin senate

Knodl says an impeachment would be necessary due to the Milwaukee County justice system is failing.’

So that makes it necessary to fire a judge before she’s even on the bench?

Interesting.

I just commented on this on another Thread.  I said if they are going to Impeach one liberal justice, they might as well impeach every liberal justice.  Democracy and the rule of law are meaningless with these clowns.

eta:  and who knows why people voted for the liberal candidate.  People in Racine County are very angry about the Fox-Con Development that was approved by the unholy Trump/Walker alliance.  They pushed through the land grab and development with the promise of 13,000 jobs in 10 years and in 2 years have hired 1,354 people.  Capital investment has gone down from 10 billion to 672.8 million.  The taxpayers are left paying for the Acquistion of the land and the infrastructure and the development is a fraction of what was promised.  There were a lot of stories warning that Foxconn had a history of not following through on promises when Trump and Walker made this deal.

Also Kelly was part of the Fake Elector Scheme and was paid $120,000 by the Republican Part of WI to advise them on using alternate electors. He is accusing his opponent of being unethical, but I can imagine that there a Lawyers who felt they could not vote for him.

don't really care what that asshole is "open to".
i could express the things that i am "open to".  
but i doubt anyone would want to read it.

[djAdvocate]

so, just a quick wrapup.

LIBERALS ran about 8% ahead of expectations in the two races that i posted on.
it might not hold to 2024.  but it might.

Generic Ballot is basically tied right now, which is about where it was at midterms.
in other words, we can expect 2024 to go similarly to 2022, at this juncture.
