Democratic anger could spell victory in Wisconsin: 'They hate Scott Walker'
MILWAUKEE — Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is in the fight of his life after three statewide victories that made him a Republican hero and at one point a favorite for the White House.
He’s vying for a third term leading a state that President Trump won by less than 1 percentage point in 2016, after winning two terms and beating back a Democratic recall effort. Walker has been a top target for Democrats and labor unions for years, especially after his reforms to public sector collective bargaining, but discontent with Trump may have created the conditions necessary to finally take him out. Just two years ago, Trump was the first Republican presidential candidate to win Wisconsin since Ronald Reagan in 1984.
Polls show this year's gubernatorial race as a toss-up between Walker and his Democratic challenger Tony Evers, with two recent polls showing a tie, one a 1-point lead for Walker and three with more comfortable leads for Evers.
Both candidates have campaigned with big names in the last two weeks in an effort to turn out voters in their favor on Tuesday. Walker will need the Republican base who went big for Trump in 2016 to turn out Tuesday if he’s to win the state that was a shock capture for the GOP in 2016.
