While we failed to elect a Vice President, Wisconsin succeeded in taking back the State Senate giving us the trifecta of GOP control in the Assembly, State Senate and the Governor’s chair. This is a good thing.
I still cannot believe that we didn’t elect a GOP US Senator and a President. My County (always heavily Republican) elected all the “right” people with a turnout of over 90%. 90%. That is amazing, and the “right” people all won with 60%+ margins.
I always believed that WI would do the right thing - I’m amazed that Obamao carried it, but when it was all said and done, it wouldn’t have mattered. WI is moving in the right direction. I was in Wausau and Rhinelander two months ago (most of my family lives there) and was happy to see the growing movement toward Conservatism and fiscal sanity - something that has been sorely lacking for quite some time.
