Among those registered voters who do have an opinion, 25 percent view Vukmir favorably, while 26 percent view her unfavorably.

And of that 26% which view her unfavorably, 99.77% do so because she has an "R" after her name. They would do so even if her real name was "Mary, mother of God."

Someone said Democrats should be scared if they're tied facing the GOP's lethal GOTV plan in Wisconsin

The only thing I can say that is good is, that ron johnson and trump was far behind in the polls and won easily. So the wisconsin polls seem to lean democrat.

Cannot wait for President Trump to rally for Vukmir in Wisconsin, James in Michigan, Hawley in Missouri, Barletta (again) in PA, etc.

Next rally is set for Thursday, August 30th, in Indiana for Mike Braun.

YES! This is one pollster that I DO pay attention to. They are usually right on they money.

In before the, ‘Leah’s an Estabilshment RINO’ crowd gets here. *SPIT*

BTW - President Trump ENDORSED HER after her Primary win:

“TOWN OF WASHINGTON, WI (WEAU) — The morning after a hard-fought primary race, Leah Vukmir scored a high-profile endorsement from President Trump.

‘Congratulations to Leah Vukmir of Wisconsin on your great win last night. You beat a very tough and good competitor and will make a fantastic Senator after winning in November against someone who has done very little. You have my complete and total Endorsement!’ Trump tweeted.”

Go, Leah!

Yes, Johnson by about 99K votes and Trump about 23K.

People need to decide to fire incumbent Baldwin Will no one else use the phrase made famous by Trump?

We’re going to clean up in the Senate, yet the media wants us to believe the House is gone. BS

At some point, the white vote will turn decisively for the GOP. I’m talking 80%, not the measly 57% Trump got. I hope white voters get it before it’s too late. When entertainers are fired for saying anti-white things, that will be the point at which the worm turned.

“C’mon, Wisconsin. You can do it.”

Be aware though there are an awful lot of “cheeseheads” up there and they aren’t called that for nothing.

“They would do so even if her real name was “Mary, mother of God.” “

They’d despise her no matter what. A better way to explain their idiotic mentality is that they’d hate Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin if they had Rs after their names :-).

I agree with you on the Senate ... there’s a good chance things are going to go *really* well in those races.

The Dems want the House though ... impeachment starts there ... if they get the House, they can impeach and control where the money goes. They seem to be putting their (limited) funds into the House and the House alone. That is why GOTV is SO important ... we can crush the Dems soul this fall.

The ‘Cheeseheads’ ARE the Good Guys and Gals!

The ones we need to defeat again are the Socialists in Dane and Milwaukee Counties - and Leah WON those two BLUE counties against ‘converted’ Dem Kevin Nichols in her primary. That speaks volumes, right there.

She’s going to do just fine. President Trump is coming to campaign for her (no date, yet) and even her opponent (Nichols), is going to help her on the campaign trail to form a united front to DEFEAT Tammy Baldwin.

What MORE do you want from us Cheeseheads? We ARE giving it all we’ve got, Cap’n!

"The ‘Cheeseheads’ ARE the Good Guys and Gals!" I was waiting for you to chime in😁! Just putting some chum in the water. I use it as a term of endearment since I have a son, granddaughter and first cousin (who is like a brother) who are cheeseheads. As a FIB I should talk 'eh?😎
