“If you go too far into the MAGA space, you could open the door for a competent Democrat to once again really challenge in that district,” Ribble said. “I do not think Roger should get out of the race. I don’t think Andre should get out of the race. It’s far too soon, and they should go ahead and make their case.”
Casey replaces Peter Barca, who left the post last week as he considers a run for the 1st CD. Casey served as deputy secretary from 2019-22 and now works as the principal industry expert in tax compliance and fraud for SAS Institute in Cary, N.C.
On this week’s episode of WisconsinEye’s “Rewind,” WisPolitics’s JR Ross and CBS 58’s Emilee Fannon discuss Justice Ann Walsh Bradley’s decision not to seek reelection, the Wisconsin Elections Commission rejecting the initial recall attempt against Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R-Rochester, who’s in and who’s out in legislative races, Gov. Tony Evers’ recent actions on a series of bills and President Joe Biden’s visit to Madison.
It came weeks after the state Supreme Court ruled the lines in place for the 2022 elections were unconstitutional and barred their further use. Before the first petitions were filed, Gov. Tony Evers signed new maps that moved Vos from the 63rd AD that he was elected to in 2022 to the 33rd.
State Supreme Court Justice Ann Walsh Bradley announced she won’t seek reelection next year, a decision that could make it more challenging for liberals to maintain the majority they won just a year ago.
The recommendation comes on the heels of the state Supreme Court declining to say which maps should be applied to the recall effort — the ones used in the 2022 election that the liberal majority found to be unconstitutional or the lines approved by Gov. Tony Evers in February. The bill Evers signed included a provision saying the new maps don’t take effect until this fall.
It is the second time Evers, who has repeatedly vowed to veto the PFAS bill, has called a special meeting of the budget committee. GOP members ignored the call in December 2019 and refused to attend as he pushed them to address homelessness. JFC Co-Chairs Sen. Howard Marklein, R-Spring Green, and Rep. Mark Born, R-Beaver Dam, called the guv’s latest move “phony.”
President Joe Biden in Madison touted his plan to provide student debt relief to more than 30 million Americans, saying it would help ensure Americans don’t have to put their lives on hold to pay off their school loans.
“As we get closer to November, I think Democrats all across the country and in Wisconsin will understand that President Joe Biden is the person to do the job. And when we’re thinking about the issues facing Gaza and within Israel, at the end of the day we know that Joe Biden’s going to be the guy who’s going to lead us to where we need to go,” Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley said.
On this week’s episode of WisconsinEye’s “Rewind,” WisPolitics’s JR Ross and CBS 58’s Emilee Fannon discuss Tuesday’s election results, former President Donald Trump’s visit to Green Bay, the U.S. Senate race and more.
Evers has vowed to veto SB 312 over provisions limiting DNR authority to regulate the forever chemicals, which he has argued would benefit polluters. The Dem guv has instead called for the GOP-run Joint Finance Committee to release the $125 million set aside in the state budget and use it to fund an alternate proposal that eliminates those provisions.
It includes $6 million for tribal nations in Wisconsin; $5 million for community, education and after-school prevention; $5 million for family support and resource centers; another $5 million for peer support in opioid treatment programs; $3.5 million for overdose reversal drug naloxone; $1 million for fentanyl test strips, and more.
Voters in the April presidential primary gave President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump each less than 90% of the vote share, and Milwaukee voters narrowly approved a $252 million school referendum.
Hovde raises more than $1 million in his bid for U.S. Senate, pushing him past the Wisconsin Republican Party threshold to be eligible for endorsement next month.
Milwaukee Public Schools Superintendent Keith Posley says he’s “100% unsure” why many in the business community oppose the district’s proposed $252 million referendum on Tuesday’s ballot.
On this week’s episode of WisconsinEye’s “Rewind,” WisPolitics’s JR Ross and CBS 58’s Emilee Fannon discuss Tuesday’s presidential primary and local elections, the No Labels party submitting signatures to appear on Wisconsin’s presidential ballot, opponents of Robin Vos launching a new effort to recall the GOP Assembly speaker and more.
Under the new maps, both lawmakers were drawn into the 30th SD that Wimberger first won in 2020, and Cowles announced earlier this year he planned to move into the 2nd.
The group seeking to recall Robin Vos asked a Dane County Court for more time to respond to the challenge filed by the GOP Assembly speaker, who wants the effort dismissed.
The Equal Protection Project, an anti-affirmative action group, filed a complaint in January targeting UW-Madison’s Creando Comunidad: Community-Engaged BIPOC Fellows program, arguing it is discriminatory against white students. The program requires that recipients be members of a historically underrepresented racial or ethnic group or community.
Robin Vos says his decision to hire Michael Gableman to review the 2020 election was the biggest mistake he’s made since becoming speaker and the former Wisconsin Supreme Court justice should be disbarred.
