Dane County is the polar opposite of what Trump uses in his rallies and threatens if elected to a second term.

Donald Trump can win the Dairy State by running up the numbers in rural Wisconsin. No recent presidential candidate has achieved such a lopsided victory in rural communities like he did in 2016. But if he wants to replicate that success, he should stick to a policy contest, not a personality one.

We need intelligent, serious leaders who are committed to finding workable solutions, not more platitudes and grievances that may make you chuckle but do nothing to solve problems. For Wisconsin agriculture, Trump was bad enough the first time.

As we grapple with skyrocketing inflation, depleting savings accounts, soaring interest rates, and wages unable to keep pace with the financial ruins the Biden-Harris agenda has left us in, Tim Walz is right- we cannot afford four more years of Democrat failed policies.

It’s no secret that Donald Trump’s botched response to the pandemic hurt our economy. Thanks to Vice President Harris’ leadership, more Wisconsinites have jobs and there’s more money in our pockets. But many families still need more support.

Part of Hovde’s consistent oversimplification could be due to him just being an ineloquent speaker, but when it comes to political campaigns, a single sound bite can make or break.

Rothman and the Board of Regents must overcome skepticism in the state Capitol, where a recent analysis by the Legislative Fiscal Bureau showed the Universities of Wisconsin employed about 6,000 more people in the 2022-23 academic year than it did in 1992-93. During the same period, overall enrollment climbed only slightly, from about 160,000 in 1992-93 to 163,589 expected this fall.

‘By-right development’ means simpler approval for projects that fit zoning codes.

Ron San Felippo has homes in East Troy and Florida while serving on commission and also voting in elections as city resident.

The lock boxes are accessed by one certified clerk and counted on Election Day. The mail, while historically safe, still goes through several hands from the mailbox to delivery at election headquarters. Plus, there are worries about the operational problems facing the postal service.

Van Orden’s misbehavior, temper tantrums, mudslinging and extremist views are not a substitute for legislative results that solve problems and constituent services that help regular Wisconsinites.

Rev. Jesse Jackson’s message inspires a new generation to vote.

Why does the credible mainstream national press fixate on the quality of Harris’s interviews, or lack of them?

There are no perfect people and certainly no perfect candidates, yet I will be voting for Kamala Harris. And I hope for the sake of our country, you will too.

China, with the assistance of the Mexican cartels, is destroying our next generation of Americans and productive members of society with a cheap and highly addictive drug, fentanyl.

In return for their demonstrated commitment to Wisconsin’s communities, our members ask for the right to competitively bid on all construction projects. In our current world, project labor agreement requirements deny 70% of Wisconsin’s construction workforce from working on utility projects and large scale federal projects.

U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany’s legislation requiring any negotiated agreement between the U.S. government and the World Health Organization to be considered a treaty subject to Senate ratification has passed the U.S. House of Representatives.

The Great Depression remains distinctively destructive. The 1929 stock market collapse proved to be the spark for a decade of extraordinary economic crises and human misery.

The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, discuss the top political issues at play this election cycle. In Wisconsin, it’s the economy. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.

The drop box controversy, MAGA complaining won’t destroy democracy.
