Progressive Wins Landslide Statewide Election To Wisconsin Supreme Court

You can look at all the moderately optimistic polling, but we prefer to look at actual results.  They show a blue wave coming that's outperforming polls and is not diminishing:

Rebecca Dallet trounced Michael Screnock on Tuesday for a seat on the state Supreme Court, shrinking the court's conservative majority and giving Democrats a jolt of energy heading into the fall election. 

It marked the first time in 23 years that a liberal candidate who wasn't an incumbent won a seat on the high court. [snip]

Dallet's sizable margin alarmed Republican Gov. Scott Walker enough that he posted a series of messages on Twitter warning he could be the victim of a "blue wave" this fall.  

With 88% of wards reporting, Dallet led Screnock 56% to 44%, according to unofficial returns. 

This was a statewide election in a state malignant nitwit Donald "Rump" Trump (a.k.a. President Spanky) won by less than one percent. It reduces the Republican/ Koch brothers majority on the State Supreme Court to 4-3.  No wonder loathsome Wisconsin Gov. Scott "Koch Head" Walker (R-Kochland) wanted to avoid calling special elections. The Republican/ Koch brothers gerrymandered stranglehold on Wisconsin may be coming to an end sooner rather than later.

This happens when you organize, mobilize and vote!
