My best guess is that the liberal areas of WI are slightly lower in population than in MN.  Madison is nowhere near the size of MPLS.  MN has big liberal areas in MPLS, St Paul and Duluth.  That's hard to overcome.  If you look back WI has usually been slightly more Republican in Presidential elections being a point or two closer to the Republican candidate than MN.

I just looked back at previous elections and Wisconsin is not as Democratic as I thought.  Just like I thought in every election the Republican candidate earned a higher percentage of the vote than in Minnesota.  And Wisconsin voted for Reagan both times and Minnesota did not either time.  The 88 election was pretty close and so was 2000 and 2004.  I don't see that much of a shift.  1992 and 1996
were bad elections for Bush and Dole so no surprise Wisonsin voted Democratic.
