The place to be tonight!
The Brown County Democratic Party is the rare county party that owns its own building, right here in Green Bay, Wisconsin. At their monthly meetings, it’s packed full of people.
An extremely Wisconsin fundraiser.
The next Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice is in the house tonight!
Live stream from meeting here: facebook.com/BCDPWI/videos/…

The WI GOP plans to shred the People’s Budget as though they hadn’t lost every statewide election last year. Our job: make sure they feel the heat from their constituents. On Medicaid expansion and so much else, let’s make their phones ring off the hook. apnews.com/e6e2c04416a54d…
If you were involved in the fight against ACA repeal, we need you now. And if you weren’t, we need you now, too. Wisconsin voted for Tony Evers because they believe expanding health care. He put it in the budget. The GOP wants to take it away. We can’t let them do it.
The GOP in Wisconsin acts like it cares not at all about constituent pressure. But people power can win, even here. When Walker was governor and the GOP had a lock on the legislature, in 2015, they tried to kill IRIS, a vital long-term care program for people w disabilities. 1/

LIVE: May Day protest at WI state capitol for driver’s licenses for undocumented Wisconsinites, via @voces_milwaukee pscp.tv/w/b5m8nDIyMDc3…
Madison police chief: “In Madison, we welcome everyone. As the chief in the second d largest city in Wisconsin, I want driver’s licenses for all. You should not have to drive to work or school in fear of being pulled over. It’s good economics, basic decency, and human rights.”
Terrific crowd shot by @jjkoestler of the #DayWithoutLatinxs #MayDay protest in Madison

TODAY IS AN ELECTION DAY. This thread has info for phone banking, which you, reading this right now, can do from anywhere instead of reading Twitter. Helping elect a Democrat will make you feel better. Let’s do this!
See this countdown calendar at the @RacineDems county party office? 0 days left. It’s time to get out there and elect @Tip4WI to the State Assembly. Go time.
Okay, yes, it’s a little rainy in Racine. Let’s make that an advantage for us—by getting out and knocking doors anyway. Pick up one of these at the @RacineDems office and hit the streets. Use MiniVAN on your waterproof phone and not worry about your walk packet getting soaked.

Thread, by famous Trump real-time fact checker @ddale8. @MEPFuller had noted anodyne national media coverage of Trump’s campaign rally in Green Bay last night. #Wisconsin media, if anything, did worse.
Here’s a story in @journalsentinel, the largest paper in Wisconsin, to which @MollyBeck & @patrickdmarley contributed. These are competent observers of state politics. But to them, the brazen lies with which Trump filled his speech were not a story. jsonline.com/story/news/pol…
Trump’s denunciation of something he called the “collusion delusion” was a story. Other claims were reported w/out comment. Political strategists & professors were quoted, as was one rally attendee. Bernie Sanders was mentioned - his campaign had bought an ad for the occasion.

.#Wisconsin story. @JMilesColeman worked with @DecisionDeskHQ to break down this week’s state Supreme Court election. They will get to turnout next week. Democratic-backed candidate had won decisively in a race two years ago; maps here suggest what was different this time.
Context on the Neubauer-Hagedorn results above, by @BruceMurphyMKE. Points to @DanielBice for retweeting this, since one of Murphy’s arguments is that this campaign reflected diminished influence of @journalsentinel, Wisconsin’s largest newspaper.
Lastly, @SykesCharlie offers his take on how Hagedorn pulled out a narrow victory despite being abandoned by prominent GOP-leaning business groups: It came down to self-identifying Christians buying his claim to be a victim of religious persecution.

Here are some of the pieces I wrote in 2018, if anyone cares. This has been one of the longest years of my life, so it's not really surprising that I've already forgotten some of this stuff.
One of the big themes, of course, was The Future of the Democratic Party. Things don't seem quite as bleak right now, but the beginning of the year was pretty depressing. slate.com/news-and-polit…
The good news is that the party is changing, in part because the centrists are out of ideas. slate.com/news-and-polit…
