The primary is less than two weeks away. Let's break down where things stand in this massively important statewide election that will determine the balance of power on the state's highest court.
Thanks, Dan, as always for your insights. Much appreciated. We’ve already started canvassing for the liberal candidates in Kenosha and most of the random folks I spoke with were unaware of the coming election. (The list I was using consisted of registered voters). A good baseline to see just how awareness will change in the coming weeks (days?) It also points to the importance of canvassing! We have to start talking about the importance of this election with our local friends, sisters, brothers, cousins, neighbors, etc. Big money can move mountains, drown out nuanced opinion, and will likely push to the side compelling young leaders like Judge Mitchell. But nothing replaces the face to face conversation that only happens when we get out there and discuss the issues. Too much is at stake.
Another brilliant summary that captures well the peril of our times. Thank you for this fine journalism.
