Wisconsin Megathread

[JGibson]

Glad to see Dallet win.

Scott Presler has called the race for Judge Screnock citing a massive red wave. #ThePersistence

[Gass3268]

AP called it for Dallet

[Oryxslayer]

Screnock is doing well in Waukesha County, outperforming Trump there.

Basically the story of the night, and probably most of these special elections/upcoming midterms(?):

Also AP finally calls for Dallet.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Dominating.

[Gass3268]

Dallet won by hometown (Village of Cottage Grove) with 70% of the vote!

[Nyvin]

Dallet is winning Dane County 81-19 as of now,  I really hope to see numbers like that in November...

[ON Progressive]

Screnock is doing well in Waukesha County, outperforming Trump there.

65-35 is only 1% better than Trump did, so it's not really that strong a margin.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

Dominating.

[America Needs a 13-6 Progressive SCOTUS]

Trump failed to crack 60%.

The Dane margin is simply orgasmic.

The seat she’s filling, was it previously held by a Repub or Dem?

Republican

Lincoln county tho

[Gass3268]

Dallet won multiple precincts in Ozaukee County: Cedarburg, Mequon, Port Washington, and Thiensville.

Just barely.  He got 59.6%, I believe.  But the thing to remember is that Trump's margins in the WOW counties were not great for a Republican.  It was his strength out west that carried him to victory.  Matching his percentage in WOW won't win it for Republicans unless they also match his (much better) percentages elsewhere.

[Minnesota Mike]

The Dane margin is simply orgasmic.

Even if you eliminated all the Dane county votes Dallet would still be winning.

What is encouraging for Democrats is the rebound in rural areas from the Trump numbers.

[Ebsy]

Embarrassing result for the Republican machine in Wisconsin.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Walker's tweet reaction will be something gold.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Stupendous news! Walker's Reign of Terror is on its last breaths.

[Ban my account ffs!]

Indeed.  I feel much better about rural MN... hopefully their tryst with the GOP is over.

Exactly, Trump had the worst showing in generations in the WOW counties.

This should send cold chills down Republican spines.

[henster]

If Dane becomes a 80/20 county consistently then that's huge for them statewide. Still have to do work in western WI but it gives them a lot more breathing room, if turnout disappoints in Milwaukee for say.

Yep!

Also, 60% in Door County is something wild.
