Evers won with 65% in 2013 and this is a non-partisan race I'm predicting he'll get more than 60% this time as well

Is Evers a Walker/Koch tool?

No, he has always been backed by democrats and teachers unions

[Pandaguineapig]

The lack of a serious candidate against Walker is pathetic.

To be fair the last couple of midterms have wiped out their bench. The only options are county and state legislature level politicians or names from the past like Feingold

[Pandaguineapig]

Also money is likely to be better spent protecting Baldwin than trying to beat someone who has the largest fundraising network of any governor with Kathleen Falk or whoever does end up running

[Pandaguineapig]

State Senators really aren't "nobodies" in Gubernatorial elections.

It depends on if they are in party leadership or some fundraising ability be it connections or personal wealth. A backbencher from Madison would pretty much be a some guy for the democrats

[Pandaguineapig]

Things aren't looking peachy for Burns. :/

Be careful what you wish for, he's a guy so extreme that he could be removed from the court a la Rose Bird or Roy Moore

Screnock getting 40% in Milwaukee county with 80% reporting. That is not good.

That will drop(usually the precincts that are last to report are ones from downtown Milwaukee) but it's still a good sign nonetheless

[Pandaguineapig]

93% of Milwaukee now in and Screnock getting 39%. Looks like certain people were wrong.

But the remaining precincts are majority-minority so he'll end up with 36-37%

[Pandaguineapig]

Can Screnock be held under 50?

If he goes over 50 does he just win the seat today?

No, it goes to a runoff no matter what

[Pandaguineapig]

It's hard to tell at this point, the reults are less polarized than a partisan election but almost all of Milwaukee and Dane are in

[Pandaguineapig]

Still nothing from Door, Douglas, Sauk, and Monroe, all of which will be easy liberal wins.

Screnock is from sauk and Trump won 60% of the vote there

Nope. Sauk was a Trump +0.4 county.

My bad, mistook it for an adjacent county. But Screnock still is their ciruit judge
