Oso planning to go pro
He was on track to potentially lose his home district. His odds of running for governor hover just above zero.
Uhh .. the numbers don't bear that out, his district is safely GOP.His GOP successor won by 19 points. Trump won that district by 11. Ryan would have absolutely won without much effort.
Yeah you're right. But Steil only won by 12 :-P
From my J/Sonline news feed:Wisconsin reported 1,117 new COVID-19 cases Tuesday, a new record and the first time the state has exceeded 1,000 cases confirmed in a single day since the beginning of the pandemic. The state also recorded the highest daily case count of all its Midwestern neighbors — exceeding Illinois' 955, Minnesota's 352, Iowa's 512 and Michigan's 573.
Stay-at-home not allowed. Mandatory masks not allowed. Gathering size limits not allowed. Worst of all, too many people don’t care. Crowds everywhere. Masks rarely seen except in stores that make entrance contingent on people wearing them. Maybe wearing cheese on our heads makes us act as stupid as we look.
This is flat out wrong most places, especially in Milwaukee County now that they have mandatory mask regulations in place. Making broad assessments based on a few things you see around you or thinking that the state should lock down/stay at home again when we are nowhere near a critical danger zone in hospitalizations or deaths is not helpful hyperbole.More aggressive mask regulations are a good step and should stem the tide of new cases. In the grand scheme of things, in both absolute and per capita metrics, Wisconsin is still in a very manageable place comparatively.

Today, Racine Common Counsil passed mandatory mask regulation starting on Monday and extending through December 31st. The ordinance will require face coverings to be worn over the nose and mouth by everyone in an indoor or outdoor “public space.
> New study from WallethubYou're kidding, right? Wisconsin's deaths per 100k (14.4) is worse than Texas (14), and Texas has large cities.
Talk to us in a month. Cases are going up...which will be followed by hospitalizations...then deaths.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/You’re not wrong in that our death per million is comparable to Texas. But that’s not a bad thing, Texas has done a helluva job in preventing death as it relates to Covid so far.

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/You’re not wrong in that our death per million is comparable to Texas. But that’s not a bad thing, Texas has done a helluva job in preventing death as it relates to Covid so far.I saw a stat saying something along the lines of if you add up all the deaths in Florida, Texas, and Arizona it is far less then the number of deaths in just NYC with far greater the population when the 3 of those states are combined.
Sure they were avg about the same number of deaths as we were back in May with far greater population and now they’re in the thick of it with their outbreak so of course numbers across all metrics will go up. Never said they weren’t seeing increasing numbers but relative to other outbreaks around the country they are doing a great job in preventing death.
Everyone is doing a great job at preventing death because we know so much more about treating it and are better prepared than four months ago. Texas isn't doing anything special or deserving of praise. They're just the beneficiaries of timing.And far more testing is going in today than in March and April, which lowers the death rate.Also, big shock, Texas is undercounting.https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/investigations/article/As-COVID-19-continues-to-slam-Houston-the-death-15400462.php
