Multiple media outlets have projected Donald Trump will win Wisconsin, putting the Badger State back in his column four years after narrowly losing it to Joe Biden.
In all, WisPolitics has tracked $27.2 million in five state Senate races and $54.9 million in 13 Assembly campaigns. The money race is a confluence of the new maps that gave Dems a path to the majority and the interest megadonors have taken in shaping the legislative contests.
Brian Schimming, chairman of the Republican Party of Wisconsin, says the remaining final hours of get-out-the-vote efforts will be “very intense” ahead of Election Day.
Donald Trump told his supporters at a Milwaukee rally Kamala Harris “hates you” as he charged she can’t answer a question, is a “dummy,” “cracks under pressure” and is a “weak person.” Five miles away at her own rally, Harris warned her backers that Trump is “not done” after his picks for the U.S. Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade and would seek to impose a national abortion ban, restrict access to birth control and put IVF treatments at risk.

Donald Trump at a rally in Green Bay said his supporters are “far higher quality” than Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, and that the president and VP “hate the American people.” Meanwhile, Harris at a rally in Madison said Trump is “unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance and out for unchecked power.”
The Marquette University Law School Poll’s final look at the November election found nip-and-tuck races for president and the U.S. Senate in Wisconsin, with voters having an increasingly negative view on the leading candidates in both contests.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in Madison said Dems’ desire to keep him on the ballot in Wisconsin and Michigan was “election interference” and an attempt to “trick people voting for me instead of voting for Donald Trump.”
Both numbers in the most recent reporting period were driven by large donations and candidates in top races sending money to the caucuses, often as part of coordinated efforts on mail and ads.
The State Senate Democratic Committee has transferred $7.3 million to its candidates in four top races since mid-September, helping to fuel fundraising advantages over their GOP counterparts, according to new filings. Meanwhile, the Committee to Elect a Republican Senate has sent more than $2 million to its candidates in those races over the same period.
GOP vice presidential nominee JD Vance at a Wausau rally said people “have to stop getting so offended at every little thing” after a speaker at a Trump-Vance campaign rally called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage.” Meanwhile, Dem vice presidential candidate Tim Walz slammed Donald Trump for “trash talking” the U.S.
Dem U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin says she’s prepared to vote to eliminate the filibuster in order to codify Roe v. Wade but would rather work to reform it instead. Meanwhile, Baldwin’s GOP challenger, Eric Hovde, says a Trump victory in Wisconsin would boost his chances in the razor-thin race.

The demand for early, in-person voting continued to create slowdowns with the computer system used to print absentee ballot envelope labels, the Elections Commission says.
Amid a push by both sides to get voters to cast their ballots ahead of Election Day, the number of early, in-person votes cast Tuesday spiked to at least 97,436, according to reports local clerks submitted to the Elections Commission. By comparison, 79,774 were cast in 2020 on the first day early, in-person voting was offered.
The state DOJ sought cell phones, computers and other devices as they investigated Wausau’s mayor for possible election fraud after he moved an absentee ballot drop box from the front of City Hall, according to a copy of the search warrant obtained by WisPolitics.
BROOKFIELD — Kamala Harris, former GOP U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney and former conservative talk show host Charlie Sykes joined forces Monday night to pitch moderate and Republican voters to support the Dem vice president this fall, arguing the country’s future is at stake.
“The state is really, really important, not only in terms of deciding who wins the presidency but also who controls the United States Senate,” Harrison told WISN’s “UpFront,” which is produced in partnership with WisPolitics.
GOP vice presidential nominee JD Vance at a faith rally in Waukesha said Kamala Harris is the candidate of “anti-Christian and anti-Catholic bigotry.”
GOP businessman Eric Hovde repeatedly charged Dem U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin has lied about his record during their first and only debate. Baldwin, meanwhile, accused Hovde of supporting the “Hovde plan” that would result in cuts to programs such as Social Security and chided him at one point to stay out of her personal life.
