WI GOP, WI Supreme Court & SCOTUS doing voter suppression! UPDATE: Dems win WI Supreme Court seat!
- Thread starter FAH1223
- Start date
salute fighting acts of voter suppression
You know what's funny? She's not even close to being a "New Englander" (I guess you mean Northerner?)
Hillary was born & raised in the suburbs of Chicago. Her father was a staunch conservative Republican and initially, Hillary was a Republican too until she went off to college.
She did go to a prestigious all-female university in Massachusetts (Wellesley College) but many Republican politicians attend prestigious schools also. Ted Cruz went to Princeton & Harvard, Tom Cotton went to Harvard, Josh Hawley went to Stanford & Yale. I could go on. Republicans are full of sh!t.
Also, she literally married a man from rural Arkansas and ended up becoming the First Lady of Arkansas for 8 years. Never mind all of that, let's vote for a rich foul-mouthed orange colored clown that lives in a tacky golden NYC skyscraper to be President

Well how do I put it.
People do understand that getting a great education is key. But when you go to a great school, it also gives you an aura of 'Educated but Privileged'. Folks in Wisconsin are content to not being rich, but they do care that you respect them along with anyone on the Grain/Rust Belt.
This area is not rich, but it puts food on the table for many Americans and it helps still produce some items. It's the hard-working, blue-collar attitude with people having to wake up at 3am to start the day farming and milking cows, that they want a person who gets them and thanks for their efforts.
So what happened was that for Hillary to not come here, and show respect to people who do all of that stuff, it created a perfect storm for Trump to take over. They viewed Hillary as an educated person who has apathy for them.

They can't purge the voting rolls
But
U see that democratic turnout during a pandemic
Trump is definitely losing Winsconsin in 2020 and hence the electoral college cause he not winning in Michigan and Pennsylvania again especially against Biden.

I more or less agree with this. I think there's a sense of being overlooked here until something fukked up happens (like this election fiasco) or the state is "needed" (swing state.) Even the biggest city, Milwaukee, traditionally has had a sense of being a red-headed stepchild to Chicago.
Overall, there are very educated pockets of the state. But, there are more pockets that are blue-collar and/or less "paper" educated, especially once you leave the reliably blue urban areas (Milwaukee and Madison.) Often times, they're small towns and most of the residents haven't left those towns - or leave briefly for school and come back. So with that in mind, if a candidate sells him/herself the "right" way to those folks and acknowledges them, they'll probably win. Especially if it's on some homespun bullshyt. Even if it's all a front. Cases in point: Scott Walker, who carried himself as an "aw shucks, I eat bagged lunches" everyman but really was nothing more than a career politician and a puppet for right-wing billionaires. Or Paul Ryan, who comes from money, always lived off the government tit and whose policies speak loudly for him. Both guys served long stints, even though their constituents were voting against their best interests.
In Clinton's case to not stop here, reads to the outstate folks as "fukk these yokels." Which in turn, makes it easy (along with whatever issues these people have, like racism) to vote for Trump. You can see it in the outstate swing counties that got flipped. All in all, it's not my personal logic, but a lot of people think this way here unfortunately.

i'll fill in for @acri1 on this one..... put away your champagne bottles.... trump isn't finished yet... it's april.... let's look at this victory as a sign things are moving in a positive direction -- a morale booster of sorts..... but let's hunker down... we have to play this game like a playoff team in an elimination game down by 15 points with five minutes left on the clock... it doesn't matter if we're up by 15, we have to play like we're down by 15... everybody keeps counting trump out and he keeps winning... let's not celebrate too early, there is far much more work to be done...@acri1 get yo negative ass in here!
thanks wisconsin for the win... now let's get to work and get trump out of here in november....
Interesting
dems might be making a comeback in that state
I’m surprised
The DNC was supposed to be in Wis too but now
