Here's how the election results settled in the Wisconsin State Senate.
Democrats won all four of the closest races -- Jodi Habush Sinykin (SD8), Sarah Keyeski (SD14), Kristin Alfheim (SD18), Jamie Wall (SD30) -- and will put the balance of power in play in 2026.

quite a stat, since these are the only 2 times this has happened (a split outcome) involving a WI Senate race in the past quarter-century
A few things:
-2026 cycle should be much friendlier to D's under this scenario, especially in WI's state level races
-Hillary/Kamala both ran with a D in the White House. Winning that way is a tall order w/how this country behaves. We *can and will* elect a woman.

The Baldwin-Hovde race is turning into the cliffhanger we are used to seeing at the presidential level in WI. Hovde is up right now by almost 70K but lots of Dem votes outstanding in MKE and Racine counties (and more GOP votes in assorted smaller counties)
(Florida voters approved the 60% threshold in 2006. They have no one to blame but themselves)
Want an example of a broken system? Florida DIDN’T “reject” the proposal to include a right to abortion in the constitution — they voted 58.2% in favor of abortion rights. But it needed 60% to pass, so it failed WITH A MAJORITY.
Can’t imagine what Florida women must be thinking.

Kamala: I made him work at McDonalds
Biden: I made him drive a garbage truck
Darth: Did you see what I made him do to the microphone?

Trump had one job in the final days: talk about the economy/border and tie Harris to Biden. And we're really talking about Puerto Rico and water fluoridation?

For the newer members of Election Twitter, some context:
The BIG thing Ann Selzer is famous for is consistently producing surprising Iowa poll results, many times incompatible with other polling - and being correct.
A streak stretching nearly unbroken to at least back to 2008.

It’s always Happy Hour in @derrickvanorden’s world.
He offers beer to every group that meets with him in DC, 9 AM or 5 PM. Not quite sure if @MillerCoors is still providing it free to his office.
But he’s the most embarrassing & useless member of our house delegation.
