True but I worry the amount of states that reached this standard is few and far between. This is why Crowley coming out against a millionaire tax concerns me so bad bc Crowley and WIDems are going to need all the levers at their disposal to prepare for what’s coming

WIDems couldn’t shell out for a nicer room nor food for this photo op, Jesus LMAO

Also: A governor is only as progressive (or conservative) as their legislature allows. A trifecta is everything for WIDems

Given how close the results are, I am glad we don’t have to deal with the “was refusing to allow spoiled ballots determinative?” discourse
The main lesson from WIGov last night is that their current counting practices are untenable 🤪

But a secondary lesson is that you have to run tv ads and we see this time and time again

Good polling we have going on in Wisconsin, nice work WIDEMS
August 12, 2026 at 10:18 AM
Surely the lesson here for WIDems is to cater to the 5% of independents with completely inscrutable beliefs instead of placating the massive voter base that showed out for Hong
August 12, 2026 at 7:39 AM
Ironic that is Tony Evers vindication when the party faithful hates his ass for not working w/ WIDems enough to advocate for party goals
August 12, 2026 at 7:15 AM
This is undeniable imo. An actual DSA candidate was leading in gubernatorial polls of the nation’s foremost swing state since Oct of 2025 and almost won against the establishment

Given how WIDems are becoming increasingly left-wing, Hong success w/o little national support is huge
August 12, 2026 at 6:20 AM
Being a longtime political organizer and highly successful chair of WIDems is sufficient enough but I meant moreso liberal/left will back him and he will likely get a huge amount of establishment and essentially be an unity candidate
August 12, 2026 at 2:49 AM
Was going to tweet this but Hong if she wins is getting a campaign team makeover and WIDems will do a unity tour

I have no doubt if she wins, she will do ads. I think Bernie/AOC reluctance is largely ironically bc she’s DSA
August 12, 2026 at 2:21 AM
i don't think they're that stupid! baldwin understands that bungling the trifecta would be the end for the WIDEMS and so i'm sure her, wikler and evers will rally for her

5) WIDems heart is extremely left Madison/Dane. Madison is one of the most left-wing places in the nation and that’s Hong district

6) WIDems base is Dane/Greater Miluwakee, highest growing regions in WI filled w/ very liberal young voters, and Hong is dominant there (tho Crowley is MKE exec)
August 11, 2026 at 12:44 AM
2b) So national attention about her tweets have been weird tho that could change w/ negative ads

3) WI is a swing state bc it’s polarized not moderate.

4) It’s underrated how left WIDems are now- 30% id as “very liberal” the same amount as moderate + conservative.
August 11, 2026 at 12:44 AM
She’s not but unlike every other primary, her opponents also didn’t so the only tv spending is the GOP superpac boosting her…and again whose fault is that

Regardless WIDems is dumping money for her, it’s just by r bylaw, they can’t until after the primary
August 10, 2026 at 2:52 AM
National environment is prob D+10-14 by November….whatever you think of Hong, she’s not weak enough of a candidate to underperform that substantially

Also WIDems hasn’t dumped any money into ads spends bc it’s not the general

And again ppl bedwetting about her now-> bitch behavior I fear
Hong can totally win a GE btw. she's showing up as a weaker candidate in GE polling but nothing like a hopeless candidate
August 10, 2026 at 2:43 AM
Tbf Dan Pfeiffer and Ben Rhodes aren’t like this so maybe its just blue state Xennials uniquely brain-poisoned bc they were the first online

But yeah I wanted Barnes until allegations but it doesn’t matter anymore. It’s fine and wants paramount is WIDems winning a trifecta so uplift her policies
August 9, 2026 at 9:08 PM
Seriously. 🙄

A black woman was found hung in MI and this guy is offended by the word establishment?

The issues are soooooo much bigger if we lose WI!!

#WIDems unite and vote in numbers to big to deny!! 🙏🙏🙏

Imma ask my WIDems contact after the primary is over, o think she has some professional obligations limiting public comment
July 30, 2026 at 7:35 PM
Tbf this is more an Evers problem (his reputation is more mixed with engaged WIDems than nationally) but still LMAO
July 29, 2026 at 4:56 PM
Oh sorry tbc I’m not saying she won’t win atp; I’m saying that WIDems truly bungled this esp post the Crowley restart (esp bc she still leads Barnes by 25 pts after undecideds are pushed)

But like back Barnes after Rodriguez dropped out and this predictable outcome wouldn’t have happened
July 29, 2026 at 4:53 PM
Honestly given what WIDems say about him….this tracks lmao
July 29, 2026 at 4:49 PM
Truly wild that Marquette shows that the WI Dem Gov primary is truly an issue of consolidation in a way MN Sen and even MI Sen are not

Hong is essentially tied with Undecided in the lead; WIDems truly have no one to blame but themselves lol
July 29, 2026 at 4:38 PM
Out of El-Sayed, Hong, and Flanagan, Peggy is the least likely to win…..is certainly a take when she has consistently led in polls and had the most establishment support

Craig was more solid than Stevens & WIDems but even she is imploding and regardless Flanagan was polling well ahead anyway
July 29, 2026 at 8:48 AM
Probably driven by the huge youth response but wild how WIDems bungled this lmao
holy shit, new State Navigator Wisconsin poll
July 28, 2026 at 4:27 PM
TRUMP TARIFFS COST AVERAGE WISCONSIN HOUSEHOLD $1,095 AND THOUSANDS OF JOBS IN WISCONSIN

WI GOP Congressmen (looking at you Tony Wied and Tom Tiffany) ENABLED Trump 100%.

Remember that when you see the dark money blitz of ads and #VoteBlue #WIDems

Well-liked by everyone not in WIDems LMAO.

He’s known to be insular (as is his team) and fights with his fellow statewide electeds and doesn’t work with the broader party on shared goals….which is why he has been so weird about endorsements in this race
