The geography for Democrats in Wisconsin is just brutal! I guess Democrats in WI are more self-packed than I thought because most fair maps simply wouldn't make WI-03 more D-leaning.
It’s ridiculous how blue Dane county is
Since the legislature and Evers likely won't be able to agree on a map, it'll go to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, which currently has a 4R-3D majority, but Justice Hagedorn is known for being fair and non-partisan in regards to election-related cases as he was in regards to all the election litigation from the Trump campaign before and after the year. However while it's unlikely he'd approve a blatant Republican gerrymander, he obviously wouldn't approve a split Dane Democratic one either, and a fair map would probably still end up 6R-2D alas outside of really nasty waves. I actually drew such a map in DRA and it was not only 6 Trump to 2 Biden seats, it was even 6 Walker to 2 Evers seats, even though Evers did much better in rural Wisconsin (Walker did get under 50% in the new WI-1 which removed the Waukesha portion and the successor WI-3, but that still makes the seats at best Lean R in all but the most nasty waves.)
