It was bad news for MAGA Tuesday as Democrat Susan Crawford defeated Republican Brad Schimel for the open Wisconsin Supreme Court seat. The win gives Democrats a majority on the court which they have already promised to use to eliminate two Republican House seats by redrawing districts. But, there is also good news. We’ll get to that in a moment.

Democrats are celebrating but Republicans are pushing back on their predictions for the midterm elections.
Getting ready for a blue wave in 2026...

If it makes you feel better in light of the TWO consequential GOP congressional victories in FL, then my all means celebrate!
But a bell-weathrr it is NOT!
😂😂😂🤦♂️ you do realize that Republicans picked up two seats in Florida today? You do realize this right?

Republicans kept two Florida seats in the House of Representatives Tuesday night in special elections.
Republicans are upset at Crawford’s victory but some point to the one positive to come out of Wisconsin.
That’s not good, she will be in office for a decade and as much as the ID law is great, they will redraw the districts causing republicans to lose seats either way.

No at least not yet. 2026 will be tougher because she will gerrymander 2 districts in favor of Dems. However, the voter ID requirement passing is huge!

Now the good news. Although voters opted for a leftist Democrat justice, they approved a state constitutional amendment that will make it harder for Democrats to cheat in upcoming elections.

So bad news and good news for Republicans. The 'bad news' should serve as a wake up call to the GOP to start working on an effective ground game for the midterms.
