Fusion voting would allow each of these groups to create a party and have leverage.

It’s consequential that Crowley could be the first Black candidate ever to be elected as Wisconsin’s governor — just as it was notable that, 50 years ago, a Black woman briefly assumed acting gubernatorial responsibilities in the state.

With the general election looming on Nov. 3, here, in my view, are the surfacing issues that will separate the two candidates.

My conclusion is that these people are utterly incompetent and not corrupt. They seem so inept that even if they tried to cheat, they’d screw it up. But who can blame the rest of conservatives for believing there is corruption?

Trump’s war with Canada has costs.

The Constitution demands the Supreme Court abandon its “unitary executive power” ideology, uphold the three coequal branches of government and enforce the “rule of law,” not the “rule by men.”

It’s time to stop the coddling of the rich, quit stoking an out-of-control national debt and put the nation’s budgetary house — and its future — in order.

With vaccination rates falling and preventable diseases resurging, Wisconsin families should turn to evidence and trusted medical expertise.

For helping criminally abused animals at Ridglan — which has since closed and surrendered every beagle to appropriate care — Dane County aims to punish us with up to $25,000 in fines and 12½ years in prison.

But was some of that wave in the August election Republican crossovers voting for Hong?

I spoke with Crowley over the phone to learn more about what solutions a Crowley administration would offer Wisconsinites to a problem that isn’t going away any time soon.

Racist comments posted online about the Brewers’ Black Culture Fest show why creating a welcoming ballpark for Black fans still matters.

In July, I had a great opportunity to join a bipartisan group of Midwest leaders on a visit to Taiwan.

Trump’s impulsive trade wars bring hard realities to the Badger State, where Canada is Wisconsin’s largest foreign trading partner.

Freed from the constant distractions of screens and extracurriculars, a road trip gives you the time and space to talk to your kids, teach them to love their country by actually seeing it, and prepare them for the day they eventually hit the road without you.

Nobody is watching ‘The Great America Road Trip.’

Dear Tom Tiffany and David Crowley: As you look beyond November, be willing to work with members of both parties and be willing to compromise and do what is best for the citizens of Wisconsin.

David’s experience leading our state’s largest county effectively with a clear vision and plan, his ability to collaborate effectively at all levels, his experience as a state legislator, and unique leadership qualities will make him an excellent governor on day one.
