As Biden and Harris begin their work, let us remember that change takes time — but that a lot of people have already been waiting far too long.

Let’s hope we’ve seen the end of Donald Trump’s political career. In another 10 weeks our national nightmare will have ended. And, hopefully, the country will come to its senses once again.

There is no reason for the Nanny State to intervene and change the definition of moderate drinking.

There’s no evidence to support the idea that the Electoral College makes less-populous states more relevant — or that candidates for office won’t travel to those areas if they can “camp out” in high-population areas to win an election.

It took a candidate as egregious as Donald Trump to lose in the face of Republican partisans willing to use the power of government to suppress the vote. But all of those tactics still could not withstand the dedication of an electorate committed to making their votes count.

What O’Donnell and Gabelman are discussing is not “vote fraud.” It is a voter clerical error that’s fixable.

Do not be tricked into thinking America changed overnight with this election. Police brutality, systemic racism and marginalization of many communities will continue under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

The Wisconsin economy would recover much faster if the state held the national eye a while longer by demonstrating it can stop the spread of COVID-19.

Madison protesters sacrifice symbol of abolition, equality and freedom for Black Lives Matter dogma.

Biden’s “Delaware Way” should play well in Wisconsin.

Trumpism is still with us, but Trump will no longer be able to desecrate our nation’s highest office in a manner unimaginable to his 44 predecessors, presidents who mostly defined the job as representing all Americans and not just an adoring and cultish subset of us.

The slim margin raises the question of whether the decision to keep the Green Party off the ballot in 2020 over a technicality decisively tipped the Wisconsin election in Biden’s favor.

We need to review what is encouraged and what is required of a U.S. President. Trump has shown the weaknesses in our systems and now is the time to fix them.

While the President of the United States, his campaign, and some of the Milwaukee conservative talk radio hosts like WISN’s Dan O’Donnell and Vicki McKenna are spinning tales of vote fraud, the people that actually crunch the numbers have a different story to tell.
