It's funny that Wisconsin can do this and still be a "purple" state.

Wisconsin is hopefully trending in the right (left) direction and has been for a minute. The Republicans are still trying to rat fuck everything so that Evers has a hard time getting anything done, but the state supreme court flipping blue has been huge for the state. It's definitely an uphill battle with all the rural populations holding the state back, but there's at least been some progress made there.

I mean, really looking at the numbers Wisconsin as a whole is pretty blue. The anomaly is FRJ. Barnes ran such an awful campaign though, I'm not sure FRJ actually won or if Barnes lost. Also, the DNC didn't realize he was struggling until it was too late.
