Huge news if true for the Supreme Court race!

Make it so!

[Dr. Arch]

Wisconsin is going to be YUGE Sanders just by looking at the environment. I hope that carries over to the Justice race.

I can't believe my eyes with the Supreme Court results. Is there a chance for this to turn around?

What's the story there?
Local issues never get enough attention.  Likely much more consequential to real people than whether Bernie loses by 250 or 230 delegates.
In Washington we have some prick who stuffs the ballot with initiatives to dramatically lower taxes and change programs for the worse every year, under nice-sounding names to try to trick unknowing voters into destroying the state economy.  Ought to be illegal.

Literally this...

The same thing that makes Sanders increasing his lead likely hurts Kloppenburg; most of the rest of the precincts are more rural. It's not impossible (maybe around 3/4 to a million votes left), and Bradley's lead has gone down slightly (now "only" leads by 95k), but I really doubt it. Sorry man... it's really disappointing, even for me as a NCer.

Half of Dane County is still out though?

Over on http://wisconsinvote.org/election-results it shows 1,600 precincts still out. You are right that Dane still has a lot left (76 precincts), but I don't see how that and the other scattered urban, liberal precincts gain 90k votes to take the lead. But what do I know, Kloppenburg has cut Bradley's lead from 100,000 to 80,000 since I first read Arch's post.

Mercy please. This state makes me want to cry in disappointment. Ever since I moved in, it's been nothing but chaos in local politics.

Yeah, this looks bad.

I really don't get it. Did Bernie voters stay out of that race?

A lot of the push here in Dane county was by students at the UW. While I appreciate their dedication to Bernie, I'm also fairly certain they aren't interested or knowledgeable about local races, even though they should be.

But yes, the supreme court results are what have me most upset--and why I made sure to vote, as my other votes were essentially pointless. I'm hoping Dane county results will help, but I'm afraid they probably won't be enough to turn things around for Kloppenburg.

Exactly how I feel.

If Walker is reelected in 2018, I will be officially done with this state.

Don't you have term limits? He's been in there since 2010.

NO... and he would've gotten rid of them if there would have been any in much the same way he got rid of the Government Accountability Board and changed the John Doe laws. He's a plague.

[Dr. Arch]

The race was just called for Bradley. Wisconsin continues to be a freedom state at the federal level, but a horrible state at the local level.

HHHHHS. I envy you, Washingtonian.

Well, if you do decide to leave Wisconsin, you're more than welcome to come here.

A strong possibility. Among others being considered are Minnesota and Colorado.

[Dr. Arch]

57-43 - A 14% win.

According to Greenpapers, it will be 48-38 - That's 10 Delegates - Not a huge deal, but okay I guess!

The fun part is Clinton lost everywhere bar Milwaukee & there too Sanders got 48%!

Yep! Just saw that. He almost swept the whole state.

[Dr. Arch]

Eh, this has to be depressing for Dems.

I think this is an issue much more with the candidates then the voters. Hopefully on the off chance Sanders wins the election he can work better to inform his voters about down ballot races.

Also, do you have the data for the Republican side as well?

Makes me wanna puke. What is this actually even?
