American progressives have more important things to focus on than abolishing the death penalty.

It should be a de facto policy for any state when it is in firmly Democratic control - a scenario we owe many recent gains to.

Horrible, but hopefully if states like Michigan, West Virginia, and Wisconsin restore the death penalty we can end the Obama Administration with it being more common, population-wise, than it was at the start.

Michigan has never carried out an execution, and formally outlawed it in 1846.

Wisconsin's only execution was carried out in 1851, and the practice was outlawed in 1853.

West Virginia, 1959.
