Democratic enthusiasm rises in Wisconsin: And yet, it’s still a toss-up. Plus: A brutal poll for Eric Hovde, JD Vance’s starting point, and key takeaways from questions on deportation policies.
Expect to see Harris, Walz, Baldwin and Cooke listening and talking with Wisconsin rural, suburban and rural voters.
We must do our due diligence and research candidates, refuse mediocrity and lip service from those who represent us, and demand better leadership. To ignore this, is to allow chaos in our community.
This is not a change election. It’s a more of the same election, which in Madison means which progressive is more progressive?
While Trump speaks of what he calls American carnage at his endless rallies, the truth is that during the nearly four years of Joe Biden’s presidency, the economy has dramatically outperformed the previous four years. And that’s true right here in Wisconsin.
Harris has made freedom a watchword for her campaign against the authoritarian threat posed by Trump, often employing Beyoncé’s “Freedom” as rally music.
Certainly, the Democratic version of comedy rejects MAGA Republicans and pictures their standard bearer as toxic. Still, for Harris and Walz, the comic frame seems to leave enough political elbow room for those who usually don’t vote Democrat to discover the foolishness of supporting the Republican presidential ticket.
A proposed university plaque would acknowledge the former UW president’s influence in a 20th-century movement that prompted sterilization, discrimination and genocide.
American-made clean energy is more than just a power source. It’s a cornerstone of local economic development and community resilience.
It makes sense that the DNR regulation regarding carrying firearms on boats would be relaxed, given the outdated rationale for the rules. Folks will use bows to shoot carp or a few other species, but I wouldn’t think any sane fisherman in today’s culture would dare to open fire on the open water trying to bring in a musky.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, discuss recent financial problems at Milwaukee Public schools, their history and the need to fix them. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.
The run-up to this election raises several ongoing issues for Milwaukee and Wisconsin.
Former U.S. House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s new book, “The Art of Power,” shows what makes her great.
Wisconsin’s highest court goes outside its authority to create a fast track to insecure elections.
We are getting this much attention because it is now undeniable that we are the most purple region in the country.
Walz stopped his Eau Claire speech to check after an attendee overcome by sweltering heat.
Tim Walz gives Trump a better chance to win.
Groundwork for Foxconn deal was essential.
Today’s censorship war is a cat-and-mouse game like the one CBS engaged in with the Smothers Brothers all those years ago—free speech advocates figuring out how they can evade the network censors, sometimes succeeding, sometimes failing, until of course they are fired. In today’s America, it’s the constitution that is in danger of being fired.
City of Madison officials should use the $22 million budget deficit to examine efficiencies
