32footsteps

AWA because that’s what we had in the upper Midwest.

Went there in the summer of 2005. I’m glad to hear that it’s improved since then. It wasn’t “bad” two decades ago but I’ve also heard that it is an area that is much better now. After the game I bought a CD from a street musician. An elderly black dude with an acoustic guitar singing the blues. I lost that CD in one of my moves and can’t recall the guy’s name but it was good stuff.

The Milwaukee Brewers this year are the first team in that stat tracking era to have more than 1000 pitches exceeding 100 miles per hour.

Jacob Misiorowski has over 930 of those pitches this year,

Maybe not dumbest but one of the most bizarre was Vince Coleman and the tarp at Busch Stadium.

The award is Misiorowski’s to lose at this point in time. He had the complete game one hit Maddux in June. He’s touching 105mph, his Cy Young moment came on Saturday when he struck out both Freeman and Ohtani on 7 pitches with the bases loaded and overall he wasn’t locked in during that start. He’s getting all the attention as his starts have become must see TV. That’s who will get the votes.

A no hitter with him is almost inevitable at this point.

I will not ever buy another pound of cheese from Wisconsin.

….and yet those who produce cheese vote overwhelmingly against this socialist crap.

Madison and Milwaukee are not “real” Wisconsin. Without those two shitholes the state would be deep, deep red.

Well, if true, that was a stupid plan.

Not really. Hong doesn’t do much for the down ballot candidates. Crowley can. I don’t know if he will but his ceiling in carrying those dem candidates across the finish line is much higher than Hong’s.

So instead of a Madison communist the rest of the state outside of Dane and Milwaukee counties are given the option of voting for a tongue tied black Milwaukee liberal.

---

Dang, Dems really show up for their primary. They have almost double the votes of the GOP

---

There weren’t too many contested GOP primaries other than a few county races. Many didn’t feel the need to go and vote because the governor nominee was a foregone conclusion.

This is an open primary state. Many who I know voted in the DEM primary who will not vote for them in the general.

The turnout totals and vote tallies in the deep red counties where nothing was contested will be interesting. At 5:30 last night I was voter #87 in my deep red township. That turnout is ridiculously low but there was nothing contested on the GOP side to drive turnout up.

Didn't see admit to mental issues and being on prescription drugs for it?

She admitted to self harm (cutting), she was prescribed lithium, and I believe she was hospitalized for mental illness.

The guy who “won” has said he’s in favor of data centers. Hong was not. Her initial surge in popularity came off the back of her being against them.

Already some weird reports in a few areas about absentee ballots not being recorded or data being transferred incorrectly so they had to be scanned a second time. That’s why I put “won” in parentheses above.

Alas…..they’ll all rally behind the candidate with a “D” behind their name and it’ll be closer than it should be in November.

He tries harder at being a man than Richard Simmons tried at not being gay.
