#Wisconsin, a state with a roughly 50-50 split between Republican & Democratic voters, has somehow produced gaudy Republican supermajorities in both the state Assembly & Senate. The party currently holds a 64-35 advantage in the Assembly & a 21-11 edge in the Senate.
Wisconsin’s liberals have been held hostage for years by unscrupulous Republicans who couldn’t care less about representative democracy. Wisconsin Republicans aren’t done being shameless partisans.
