Chairman of WI Democratic Party, on Fox News poll: In dark times, this is lovely to see.

Polling right now just gives a snapshot of this moment, not what the election will look like in Nov 2020. Expect the election to be razors-edge close. But in dark times, this is lovely to see.

That last thread is about how much support Trump has lost with rural voters, whom he won by 27 points in 2016. The new poll shows Biden only 2 points behind Trump with those voters.

Wikler also tweeted about that stunning change:

All in all, very good news for Democrats in Wisconsin -- and all across the country.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

What are you going to be now that you are no longer "Americas' Dairyland?"

Famous Cheese Curds?

Your ginseng farmers lost their market and the price to keep a dairy farm has many in bankruptcy.

I was born in 1955 in Greenfield. I left in 73 for the Marines.

'Fighting' Bob LaFollette is spinning!

Not surprising from what I've read about the manufacturing downturn in Wisconsin. Remember Trump promised all those manufacturing jobs to come back. The reverse has happened and farming sector is getting killed. Purdue made a comment recently that American dairy farmers may be all but extinct in the next few years. That's not a winning message. Nor is Trump's bluster that his supporters are willing to sacrifice their livelihoods for him and his lousy policies/programs.

The pendulum is swinging back!
