Looks like Hopper will be the 2nd GOP loss. Control of the Senate depends on Darling to come from behind.

I’m in Alaska and so who’s Ron Johnson?

All I know about Oshkosh is it has a big air show every year.

One of the many things that I have learned this year in Wisconsin is one of the things that Dems do extremely well is waste time and money...and lie...to your face...all the time...but, money and time and honesty seem to be utterly and completely meaningless to them.

DU is reporting that there are already 2 Dem pickups. Not that I trust the source but if the 3rd comes down to Hopper, then it will be a rough night for us.

Sorry to say this, but Hopper is going to lose this...close but a loss. Recount, but eventual loss.

The remaining precincts are in Oskosh, and Jess King was a Myor or Councillor there.

Darling still wins in the burbs...so 4-2 for the GOP. They keep the Senate.

Aw bummer, but pretty much a given.

Kapanke seems like a good guy. Somehow I wound up on his email list (I’m in AL) and gave some money to his campaign.

>>> So, is Oshkosh a lib stronghold? <<<

City of Oshkosh went 55-45 for Kloppenburg last spring, that’s not good news.

That would be an OK result.

Really wanted 5 of 6 though.

Should free Kapanke up to take another run for the House seat next year for which he can devote his full attention.
