After nearly a decade of dominance that culminated in a Republican winning Wisconsin in a presidential race for the first time in 32 years in 2016, conservatives have won just four of 14 statewide races (and one was unopposed). How did the right go so wrong?
The trouncing that Daniel Kelly received at the hands of Justice-Elect Janet Protaseiwicz was a triumph for progressive forces in Wisconsin and a final repudiation of Scott Walker’s counter-revolution.
On top of the very beatable Tony Evers only five months ago, Wisconsin Republicans are on the schneid.
Beyond the election results, who were the other people, groups and trends that won or lost?
Liberal Janet Protasiewicz beat her grouchy conservative opponent by 11 points after campaigning on abortion access and fairer voting maps.
Please join me in urging the passage of the All Copays Count legislation here in the Badger State, and in asking our members of Congress to support the HELP Act this year.

Longtime liberal Justice Ann Walsh Bradley said she will seek a fourth 10-year term in 2025, when ideological control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court will again be on the ballot.
Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu said the Senate is not considering impeaching liberal Supreme Court Justice-elect Janet Protasiewicz.
Superintendents, a county executive, a mayor, public employees and parents pressed the GOP-run Joint Finance Committee Wednesday to boost shared revenue and school funding increases during the first public hearing on the biennial budget.
Conservative opponent Daniel Kelly is bitter in defeat.
The brittle, harsh, and truly troubling display from Kelly alerted the television audience that Midwestern niceness is not a trait equally shared.
If Republicans like LaMahieu were honest they’d admit that the reason they want the governor to call a new election to fill La Follette’s post is — if they can get a Republican elected — they want to return election oversight to the office.
