Biden Got Extra Cheddar!

Biden wins Wisconsin.
I believe the state of Wisconsin will become ground zero for Donald J. Trump and his eventual Democratic nominee. The state went to Trump in 2016 collapsing the Democrats Blue Wall. The states of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania will decide who's going to be the president.

Trump must hold onto Wisconsin to win the election.

This is the map from 270 to Win. They say that Biden has to earn at least the Rust Belt (Midwest) to win the election.

This is what I believe the election will result in with Wisconsin going to Trump. They will end up with a tie. As the New York Magazine reported, I strongly believe that there's going to be a tie. If you take the 2016 map and flip Michigan and Pennsylvania (but not Wisconsin) from red to blue, and also flip the 2d congressional district of Nebraska (carried by Trump in 2018 by just two points; Nebraska as well as Maine allocates electoral votes to individual congressional districts) from red to blue–you’d wind up with a 269-269 tie.
Sanders endorses Joe Biden.
If that were to happen, the U.S. Constitution stipulates that the newly-elected House of Representatives would take over the presidential contest with each state casting one vote for its entire House delegation. States with tied delegations cast no vote.

The Republicans who have a large advantage in state delegation will make the decision. Trump will win reelection.

With results in and a lot of controversy, Wisconsin went to Joe Biden.
GOP leader Robin Vos.

Voters had brave the elements and the coronavirus to cast their ballots last Tuesday.

The Republican controlled legislature denied Gov. Tony Evers an opportunity to delay the primaries.

Evers took it to the state courts and lost an appeal. A federal judge also delayed the primary. Republicans filed an emergency appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Court sided with Republicans and ordered the primaries to continue.

The decision came on a 5-4 decision once again showing how this conservative wing of the Court has fucked up a lot of progress in the country.

Folks had to brave rain, sleet and potential exposure to the COVID-19 for an opportunity to cast a ballot. Matter of fact, it took hours and long waits in line for this. Some were upset that their mail-in ballots came on the day of the primaries. Mail-in ballots had to be sent before the election closed.

It was the picture seen across the world.
Republicans better see this as a warning that voters aren't tolerating this.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) announced he was dropping out the race shortly after the Wisconsin primary.

The senator won the state in 2016 and prolonged the Democratic contest. Hillary Clinton would end up competing with Sanders almost two months before he finally dropped out.

In the Democratic stronghold of Milwaukee, folks waited hours. There were only five polling stations out of the normal 180.

The Republicans are hoping to keep a hold of the state's supreme court. They have a candidate named Daniel Kelly. He is banking on Republicans turning out in favor of him.

Trump already the nominee designate won Wisconsin.

Biden won with 61% of the vote with Sanders wining 31% and the remaining candidates winning 6% of the vote.
