An internal poll done by Democrat Tammy Baldwin’s Senate campaign last week showed Harris down by 3 percentage points in Wisconsin, while Baldwin was up by two points, according to a person familiar with the poll. The person said much of the narrowing is due to Republicans’ strength with noncollege-educated men. Public polling has shown Harris with a slight lead in the state.


Flame me all you want but we are repeating the same mistakes of 2016. I am at a lose to explain it. I don't understand the appeal. That does change the situation. We are wandering off chasing butterflies in Florida and Texas, even Georgia and Arizona for that matter, when we should be pumping hundreds of millions of dollars into Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. And we should basically be living there.
The popular vote does not win this particular election, EV math does. That math says the states that matter most are Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania.
