The red wave hit this year: a ~6% national swing to Trump, from 2020 margins.

In Wisconsin, thousands of heroes pulled the swing down to 1.5%. More D votes statewide & in 46 counties. Tammy Baldwin won. Huge wins in the state legislature.

Deeply grateful to all—it mattered.
🧵
This is a perilous moment, and a frightening one. Especially for the people in communities whose freedoms, livelihoods, and safety are now threatened by an emboldened, unfettered Trump and the extremists around him.

We fought to prevent this. We came up short.
We will need to focus soon on somehow containing the damage of the second Trump term, standing in solidarity with one another, and fighting back.

But now, let's thank Harris and Walz for their 107-day sprint—and the countless people who poured themselves into the work.

Before Walz took the stage in Milwaukee tonight, I got a call from a number unlike any I'd ever seen. It ended with four zeroes. I picked it up.

It was Joe Biden. 🧵 Image
The President was calling to say thanks—to all of us in Wisconsin who've been working our hearts out to make this moment possible.

If you're reading this, that might very well include you.
I told him how honored I felt to receive his call, on behalf of thousands of people here who worked to elect him—and then never stopped organizing.

"God bless ya," he said, 100% himself.

What an extraordinary human being he is. Let's do him proud. Let's win tomorrow.

Ten days left.

Explosive turnout for Early Vote.

Tied polls.

Dire warnings.

Jubilant crowds.

An emotional roller coaster. How could there not be? 🧵
In these moments, focus on the next thing you can do. It’s the closest elections where resources matter most in the final stretch.

And this is the closest the polls have ever been.

Can you chip in to help WisDems tip toss-up Wisconsin to Harris-Walz?

So much is out of your control. But there’s a lot about this election we do know.

The Harris-Cheney town hall tonight really drove home the threat Trump would pose if he got back into power.

Some folks ask: why think the next Trump term would be worse than the last one?

Here’s why. 🧵
1. Vance was chosen because, unlike Pence, he's willing to violate his oath of office if it helps Trump exercise unlimited power
2. The Supreme Court has now ruled that Trump has immunity from criminal prosecution if his crimes are committed in his “official capacity”
