(15,951 posts)flipped a Supreme Court justice and State Senate seat earlier this year. Plus re-elected Tammy. I don't know what you're talking about--I live here and I think we had a great night.

(14,971 posts)Republican supermajority in the legislature. No legislative race went uncontested this mid-term and we specifically targeted the 3 weakest R's because that would break the supermajority and allow our Dem Governor to veto the toxic crap they pass. Wisconsin needs to work on this in 2020. Wisconsin Dem party needs to study how Virginia and NC did it. And I wish you guys could get rid of that asshole Sean Duffy. Your legislature is making noises about passing laws to take power away from the Governor, probably when it comes to appointing judges etc. They tried the same crap in NC.
