You can be certain that many, many of us in Wisconsin understand the stakes in Tuesday's election. My wife & I voted a couple of weeks ago. There will be a HUGE (or is that YUGE?) turnout in Madison/Dane County. Musk (and his acolyte, Trump) are hugely unpopular here but I can't tell how the suburban Milwaukee counties or the Fox River Valley (Green Bay, Appleton, Oshkosh et al) feel about Musk or the election. We expected the election to be about abortion. It isn't. It is about Musk and, to a somewhat lesser degree, Trump. We are seeing ads encouraging support for Schimel to protect Trump's program. In Madison those ads only encourage more people to turn out to vote for Susan Crawford. On Wisconsin!!

Wisconinite here. I wil be voting tomorrow for Crawford. I'm not sure the national media has picked up the entire story. Besides Supreme Court I get to vote for State Director of Public Instruction, mayor, alderman, and school Board. And a state constitutional amenment to require ID in order to vote. All of theses nonpartison races have conservative and liberal candidates backed by the political parties. Much is at stake tomorrow. We are a closely divided state with a proud progressive history that seems to be forgotten.We are overwhelmed with advertisements for all these candidates.

Wisconsin voters have not shown intelligence when voting for someone like Ron Johnson, not once, not twice, but THREE times.

Let's hope they show more intelligence in this election for the state supreme court tomorrow.

I hope they see it for what it is.

We did it!

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has called CRAWFORD winner of State Supreme Court race and UNDERLY winner of State Director of Public Instruction.

The voter ID referendum won overwhelmingly - another deceptively worded constitutional amendment with insufficient voter info.

Thanks to Larry in Beloit (and everyone else who did GOTV phone calls) and David in Menomonie (and everyone else who did door knocking). As a Wisconsin voter I really appreciate the hard work you all did!
