About 537,000 people voted in the DEM primary, compared to 456,000 on the R side. It's cheering for those anticipating a Blue Wave...but, can we talk about how nearly 6,000 Rs..10% of the vote..cast ballots for Paul Nehlen, who is literally a neo-Nazi??

1. Sorry to say this, but it means a large populous of Wisconsinite either are Nazis or sympathize with

them

There is no other way to rationalize it

8. No need to apologize. nazis are scum.

2. It won't matter with the gerrymandering going on.

3. Democrats can pick up seats in spite of gerrymandering.

All about turnout

[Wellstone ruled]

4. Was there on Primay Day,

went back to my home town area. Something is changing,the Giant has awaken. Again,understand the turnout was fair to poor around that area. This is a District that flipped to the Dems in a special election last year.

6. The anger of democrats is undeniable and not going away

this will fuel record turn out while all GOP has is what? Trump??! Successful healthcare reform? Rising wages?..

[Wellstone ruled]

10. My hometown is in one of the poorest

areas of Wisconsin. Yes,they have a Casino,which produces tons of minimum wage jobs and produces minimal spin off to anything else. Meaning the payroll does not turn the normal seven times.

And the remaining Dairy Operations are in the process of or heading towards liquidation. So to say,could only spend part of that day there. To friggin depressing as to what has happened under GOP control for fifty years.

5. But there are over 3 million registered voters in Wisconsin

So 2/3 couldn't be bothered to participate in the democratic process. GOTV!

[beachbum bob]

7. For a primary, this is a big percentage and the Nov midterm looks to be

Record setting

[cutroot]

9. republicans do not turn out that much for primaries.

They know that they will just vote for any R on the ballot. These numbers are not substantial enough. We need to swamp them to overcome their cheating.

[BlueWI]

11. Agreed.

Too much at stake to take anything for granted.
