But guys, there's KATHLEEN VINEHOUT!1!!1!

(On a serious note, she'd be better than the current nobodies, having held down a Trump-voting Senate district in an area of the state trending away from Democrats)

Yeah, she might be a good choice, but are there any indications that she's even considering?

There's no indications she won't run, which is the best we've got right now.

Falk? She couldn't even win the AG race during the 2006 wave.

Vinehout? She would be a pretty good choice. Represents an area that Democrats need to win in order to take the state.

Vinehout. Justice for 2014.

Looks like Vinehout is ramping up "exploring a bid" for Governor. An easy primary could help ameliorate the money disadvantage the Democrats have vs Walker.

At this point, probably Shilling followed by Vinehout.  Soglin would be a pretty bad choice IMO.

Shilling isn't running.

Ugh, if only Vinehout hadn't been in that car crash in 2014. She'd have been a much much better candidate than the Some Lady Mary Burke, and could've replicated Tom Wolf's victory, especially thanks to her appeal to western Wisconsin.

Then she would probably cruise to reelection in 2018, everything being the same, and probably be on veep shortlists or even an outside presidential campaign in 2020.

An Evers/Vinehout ticket would be amazing.

What are the odds Evers wins but Kleefisch is re-elected? Is she likely to outperform or underperform Walker?

The primaries are separate but the Governor and LtG run on the same ticket

Except for the recall, which was separate for both Gov and LtG?

I assume a recall can only target one elected official, so they were both recalled separately.
