(7,349 posts)The surrounding counties didnt however.
And imo, the counties/cities we need to concentrate on are Brown, Fond du Lac, Eau Claire, La Crosse, and other highly red areas that trump visited back in 2016 but we sent no representation. Dane and Milwaukee will stay blue, we need to GOTV in those red areas. Im already seeing trump signs on I94-39.

(23,373 posts)The Obama campaign focused on the blue areas near the Chicago boarder and sent a whole lot of Chicagoans going door to door in the Gary area. We didn't bother with the red parts and we won Indiana and surprised a lot of people.
Each Wisconsin vote is weighted the same. So getting the Milwaukee people excited is very important.
I hope Biden and Harris do have time to come back and work on other areas. But, I understand the strategy.

Our amazingly personable, pragmatic, accomplished, ever-so-engaging VP candidate, or "Mother's Boy," scowling and pointing fingers, while denying that nearly 200,000 Americans have been MURDERED by he and his boss?

(7,349 posts)And which is why I stressed the need for us to get out of the already blue areas and branch out to the red. Not much need for us to campaign in Milwaukee or Dane counties (we here on the ground are taking care of that by phone banking, sending postcards, etc.)...get up North. Anything North of, and including Marathon County.
