🚨 WOW! Sen. Elizabeth Warren just got EMBARRASSED for her opposition to the SAVE America Act "Aliens [in NJ] were registered to vote...I thought Dems said there is no evidence of [noncitizens registered]!" WARREN: *Runs away* 🤡 DEMS = PARTY OF FRAUD

@wiz_political From NBC News no less.

LOL! The oppo against Crowley, Evers’ pick, is now dropping. Chaos!

@BillMcCoshen11 @skchheda If you change your vote and Rodriguez comes back in the race, do you get a do-do-over?

@skchheda Really? If you voted too early and your candidate is still in the race, why should you be allowed to change your vote? You made a choice like everyone who votes on Election Day. No do-overs.

You should have to prove who you voted for? Like… your vote is no longer secret? That’s Orwellian insanity. We are talking about going back to what it was TWO WEEKS AGO. And she voted against it then, and that was before her preferred candidate Sara Rodriguez dropped out. This is just all dumb criticism from someone who isn’t otherwise dumb.

Two noteworthy results from the @MULawPoll 1. Wisconsin is a center-right state. The percentage of self-identified conservatives (39%) is higher than self-identified liberals (29%). The challenge for conservatives is getting their people to the polls. 2. Hong, the Dems front runner is more likely to be identified as very liberal than Tiffany is to be identified as very conservative. As the campaigns continue, Hong's number of going to increase more than Tiffany's as the "haven't heards" gather enough information to form an opinion.

@BillMcCoshen11 @AnnJacobsMKE @DavidCCrowley Every definition I can find online suggests a spoiled ballot is the result of an accident or a mistake (i.e., a dog ate my absentee ballot) not that someone just changed their mind.

This post from @AnnJacobsMKE raises more questions: ✅Since she has publicly stated she supports @DavidCCrowley and there is more than a perception spoiling ballots would benefit her preferred candidate, should she recuse herself if WEC reconsiders? ✅Why would anyone who cast an absentee ballot be allowed to spoil their ballot? Shouldn’t that option only be for @saraforwi or @MissyforWI voters? You should have to prove your candidate is out.

@jessieopie @DavidCCrowley @FrancescaHongWI To be clear, the candidate who dropped out of the race because he *knew he couldn't win in August* is accusing @FrancescaHongWI of not being able to win in November. Desperation.

In his first TV ad of the Dem gov primary, @DavidCCrowley says Republicans are spending millions of $ to “prop up candidates they know they can beat,” referencing the RGA’s @FrancescaHongWI ad youtu.be/hsESOrhAbNk?is…

"The DSA platform offers a utopian vision that erases the complexities of human life."

That was quick: Last week: @AnnJacobsMKE says China didn't steal any voter data. This week: Washington Post says China's theft of voter data 'no big deal'

This is socialism in practice. Nicaragua and Mr. Ortega were the cause celeb of Democrats in the 80s. Now look what they've wrought.

@MollyBeck Ask yourself a simple question: would @WisDems be doing this if Hong had dropped out and was now struggling to get back in? Of course not. This is clearly a last ditch effort by the establishment for their preferred candidate.

NEW🧵: The Democratic Party of Wisconsin sent a letter to state elections commissioners today asking them to immediately rescind guidance that bars absentee voters from requesting a new ballot if their preferred candidate drops out.

@MollyBeck Perhaps an acknowledgement by the Journal Sentinel that the constant manipulation of the rules is one reason people have lost faith in elections would be appropriate here.

@DRLDD @MollyBeck They live by the Groucho Marx standard: if you don't like my morals, I've got others.

@MollyBeck Democrats believe laws and rules don't apply to them. 2 tiers of justice.

@wiz_political @SteveAustinWI Abortion is a moot point given the composition of the state supreme court. The Dems should actually be celebrating the repeal of Roe which threw the issue back to the state court--their playground.

@SteveAustinWI I wonder what the abortion angle looks like now that it has had some time to bake in. Can only imagine the oppo on Hong.

This makes me feel better about the governor’s race.

@wiz_political Have faith my friend, have faith!

@DairylandSent Great article.

Campaign finance reports tell you more than who wrote the checks. They reveal how a campaign intends to win. Francesca Hong isn’t just raising money differently. She’s building a very different campaign than her rivals. Beyond the dollars, here’s what the filings reveal. ⬇️

@BillMcCoshen11 @MULawPoll But most importantly, 11 long days 'til the next power ranking. We're on pins and needles.

Every day matters! Days until: @MULawPoll - 1 Aug 11 primary - 21 Nov 3 general - 105 The Marquette poll won’t be as relevant as usual because it doesn’t capture the current landscape in the Dem gubernatorial primary. But there will still be useful information. Is @FrancescaHongWI pulling away? Is @TheOtherMandela still close behind Hong? Who are Dem primary voters second choice?

@mhenks05 Stand by for the WEC to reverse that decision. To quote Groucho Marx "if you don't like my morals, I have others."

Well of course not. Glad they came to this conclusion. The same people arguing for the ability to re-vote were against RFK Jr removing himself from the ballot in 2024. But this is also the problem with having such a massive early voting window. So much can change in the weeks we allow ballots to be circulating.

@wiz_political That guy in the upper right has a sign that says "fake president" must be an election denier. Has the Journal Sentinel been notified?

WisDems claim to be diverse and actively promote that thesis but every photo they promote seems to be of older white people. Especially women.
