The Victors

He lost by 1 point to an incumbent in a tough year for Dems. He underperformed Evers, but it wasn't catastrophic by any means. He would cruise to victory in this environment.*

• I know Barnes is to the left of what Evers et al. want, but he was clearly #2 behind Hong. Trying to resurrect Crowley's zombie nomination instead of supporting Barnes was catastrophically stupid.* - By Bluebuck August 4, 2026 at 07:34:44 AM
  • Dems were 80%+ to win and now R’s are favored. Really hope the Progs are right in Michigan and Wisc. If not, total clown show.* - By crumbs August 4, 2026 at 08:05:27 AM
    • I really don't like lumping El Sayed in with Hong. El Sayed is a Democrat on the left end of the spectrum. He's nowhere near Hong et al.* - By Bluebuck August 4, 2026 at 08:09:02 AM
  • He’s a proven electoral underperformer; so is Crowley though too, TBF. Had any other Dem come out forcefully against data centers - By brick August 4, 2026 at 08:03:05 AM

      • He lost to a guy with a 37% approval rating. Notably, Johnson had publicly promised to serve only 2 terms - By brick August 4, 2026 at 08:30:38 AM
        • It's almost certainly going to be Hong who is probably a sure loser* - By BigAppleBucky August 4, 2026 at 11:56:50 AM
  • wonder if they knew about the sex stuff that Barnes got tied up in. what an absolute clusterfuck, Hong is a total moron, I don't know if I could vote for her if I were a Wisconsin resident. (nm) - By suede August 4, 2026 at 07:40:02 AM
