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.

Half priced (shitty) beer when Mitch McConnell dies.

No.

Last week my 10 year old daughter was reading a list of silly HOA rules. Out of nowhere she said: “HOAs are the dumbest thing I’ve heard of. Only a democrat could thing up something this stupid.”

Later she thanked her mother and I for moving out of Madison because “they would’ve made me a communist by now.”

The Brewers were an extreme longshot in this all along. They just won’t go out and get a two month rental. If they make a move for pitching it’ll be for someone who they’ll have a year or two of control over beyond this year. Unless it’s Freddy Peralta because he’d be cheap.

The Brewer farm system is an embarrassment of riches right now. If they can somehow get by LA this year, awesome….but the kids they have coming up will be hitting their peak in two to three years and that’s what they are probably anticipating. Miz (barring injury) is only going to get better so with the fielders that have in the pipeline they’ll be looking to surround that core with arms they control and not two month rentals.

Shon Barnes’ previous job was as the police chief in Madison, Wisconsin. The interim chief in Seattle used to be the chief in Beloit, Wisconsin. Beloit is the sound a turd makes when it hits the water in your toilet. The city of Beloit is aptly named.

At the current time the tide has turned. If/when they get control of the government there will be a Tsunami in the opposite direction.

I think very few people who read what you wrote here can truly comprehend it.

Sadly, there’s truth in that. Madison is entirely different than the rest of the state. Cut out Madison and Milwaukee and Wisconsin would be nearly as red as Oklahoma.

Even outside of Madison people don’t have a clear grasp of it. They see that this is a “peaceful prayer vigil” because that’s how it’s being reported. Unless you follow news closely that’s what you’ll think it is.

It has nothing to do with a lifelong thug getting his brains splattered on the pavement. This is political. If this would’ve happened two weeks from now it would be over. With the primary election coming up it’s newsworthy.

I’m 50 and I’ve never had anything but raw milk. Grew up on a dairy farm so that’s what we had. Never had any health related issues with it. My great grandmother always drank raw milk. She loved to 108. I won’t drink it from the random guy up the road who is marketing it. I’ll only get it from people I know and trust.

thought he would have been more successful in the NFL. Maybe he went to the wrong franchise and could have been better elsewhere.

He was lazy. He wasn’t willing to put in the time required of an NFL coach. The highly successful ones are film room rats working insane hours. Spurrier preferred being on a golf course more than coaching and his ego led him to believe his offensive strategy was more than enough to succeed.
