LIVE THREAD: Ryan vs Nehlen Wisconsin 1st Congressional District Primary 8/09/2016
WisPolitics.com ^

Posted on 08/09/2016 9:50:32 AM PDT by nikos1121

1st CD, Republican: Incumbent Paul Ryan, of Janesville, and Paul Nehlen, of Williams Bay.

I absolutely have nothing on this election, so I thought I'd start a thread, and we can add to it as information comes in. Some polls have Ryan way ahead, and a few find it less certain. On the other hand, wasn't this the climate before the Cantor election? He was sitting fat dumb and happy with a big lead in the polls?

If I were a betting man, I'd have to put my money on Ryan and by all counts, he's a very popular guy up there, but then again, so is Obama.

All I know is CSpan has a live photo of a podium with Paul Ryan’s name on it?

I would like to think it’s for his concession speech.......

Also, that replacing someone like Ryan with a new guy meanse your state loses all the influence and pull he’d built up over the past 18 years.

So they like all the pork Paul Rino can bring back from the District of Corruption. Paul Rino is no different than a RAT, just is attached to the Elephant part of the uniparty. Gwad I hope this Nov election is a blowout and all the establishment is banished.

Dump Ryan. If he wins, I will donate to the Democrat running against him.

Oy, I expect very little from the simple minds of Waukesha. They got mad at Trump for pointing out a few truths about Walker. It’s better that Trump endorsed Ryan. He can handle him from the Oval Office.

He might have just eaten a lot of paint chips as a child. Have a heart, guy.

I am sure you would. I have a feeling you are a democrat or socialist who has come to this site.

OK I saw 32% reporting and thought huh? How can turnout be that low, haha. Thanks. Either I need glasses or it was a misprint.

Paul Ryan is the one guy who can make Joe Biden look competent.

I am praying for a Ryan win. I am nervous he won’t. He is an honest guy.


Well, that’s true. Ryan honestly tried to cut vet pay while stuffing the pockets of illegals and welfare queens. How principled and conservative of him.

True Ryan has a wealthy upper middle class area. His district also includes Racine/Kenosha. Areas both hurting due to job loss.

I don’t think Nehlen will win. I thought it would be a lot closer but it doesn’t look that way. Was hoping even if Ryan won, he would walk away weaker.

You have all lost sight of what is important. No true conservative could donate to a democrat, especially those running today. That confirms what I said before. This site has been invaded by a bunch if liberals.
