" Yet Wisconsin has become a Republican stronghold:"
NYT reporting is so hilariously awful
yeah the place that just voted a dem by 12% is a republican stronghold
lolll I had to see it for myself. How does the NYT end up saying such ridiculous stuff in non-opinion column articles? It's not like they don't have the proper talent on their payroll to do a little fact-checking. "Republican stronghold" is not an ambiguous term - that is the term you'd use for a state like Wyoming or Idaho. A state with a heavy, long-term and proven Republican lean. Wisconsin is not even remotely close to that. Democrats are still plenty competitive there, it's just that the legislature seems safer R than it should be due to savage gerrymandering by Republicans.
But if Wisconsin is a "Republican stronghold" by this author's standards, I'm curious what they think of Colorado or Virginia? States with a Republican lean? :*
Michigan would also be a "Republican stronghold" with the NYT reasoning. Haha. They really need Nate Cohn, Jonathan Martin, Trip Gabriel, or Alex Burns to write all the congressional race snapshot articles. They're the only NYT political writers that have written coherent stories looking at individual races this year.
