Dan Shafer writes, "Despite this once-in-a-generation surplus, Republicans have built a budget that completely misses the mark and makes critical cuts on top priority issues, squandering a generational opportunity for the state."

Dan Shafer writes, "As they have with the last two budgets proposed by Gov. Tony Evers, the Republicans in charge of the budget-writing process in Madison are eliminating just about everything the governor proposed."

Dan Shafer writes, "If Daniel Kelly were elected, the future of democracy in Wisconsin would be at risk. That’s not a chance any of us should be willing to take."

Dan Shafer writes, "[Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty] deserves more scrutiny than it has received over this ordeal. What it did was frighteningly reckless."

Dan Shafer says, "With a catastrophic gaffe like this, Michels gave away the game about what his campaign is really about: Power."

There’s less than four weeks to go until Election Day, and — surprise, surprise! — Wisconsin’s statewide elections are close. 

People watching the debate got the chance to see Mandela Barnes for the positive, reform-minded candidate he is and not the person Ron Johnson’s wealthy donors have portrayed him to be.

The race for U.S. Senate between Ron Johnson and Mandela Barnes and the race for governor between Tony Evers and Tim Michels are both very close. So, every new Marquette Poll is going to be a pretty big deal to understand these races and the top issues going into Election Day.

The Recombobulation Area's Dan Shafer highlights the latest Marquette University poll numbers, which show a surging Mandela Barnes and an unpopular Ron Johnson.

Baldwin’s work on this issue has been admirable, and she deserves praise for what she’s been able to do to work across the aisle and achieve meaningful results on such an important issue.
