Report from Valders, a village in Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, population 950: Two Hong signs spotted.
Not a lot but hey, it's a small-town in a red/rural part of the state.
#USPOL #Wisconsin

Me, a Hong supporter: “If Hong doesn’t win I will support whoever the Democratic primary winner is in the general election.”
Anti-Hong Democrat: “If Hong wins I’m not going to vote in the general election.”
Thanks, Asshole. What happened to your “vote blue no matter who” motto from past elections?

You have one week left until election day, #Wisconsin.

"Wisconsin has conserved 750,000 acres since 1989. These trail cam photos show why it matters"

These Wisconsin trail camera photos show what 750,000 acres of protected land can do for wildlife
Trail cameras in Wisconsin have captured over 100 million photos of wildlife.

Wow, a friend of mine here in Wisconsin got this in the mail... 1/2
"A fake 'newspaper' called The Wisconsin Transcript.
It’s 12 pages of fear-mongering. Fear of foreigners and immigrants, fear of “Socialists”, fear of Medicare fraud, fear of Democrat “extremism”.
Nowhere was there information on who the publisher was, or who paid for it."

This is a unique opportunity for #Wisconsin and I look forward to Governor Hong.
“Francesca Hong enters the final days of the Democratic primary for governor in the pole position after making it through a statewide debate unscathed and the release of new polling that solidifies her position as the field's frontrunner.”

There's more chaos in the Wisconsin Gubernatorial Primary!

Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez Ends Campaign For Governor
From establishment front-runner to out of the race in a week.

Someone pointed out that David Crowley will need to step down from his role as County Executive of Milwaukee County if/when he is elected Governor...
...and the best thing to do would be to get a *true* progressive (maybe even a Democratic Socialist?) elected to be the new County Executive.
Hell Yeah.

A $2.33/hr tipped minimum wage is pretty ridiculous.
"In addition to raising Wisconsin’s minimum hourly wage, the report also argues in favor of eliminating Wisconsin’s separate minimum wage for tipped workers. In Wisconsin, businesses have to pay tipped workers at least $2.33 an hour. However, if an employee doesn’t make at least $7.25 an hour from wages and tips combined, the employer is required to make up the difference."

I made a short URL so I could get to the Milwaukee County Vehicle Crash Dashboard easily...

That's cool.
"A bipartisan committee of Wisconsin legislators has signed off on a $250,000 funding deal for WisconsinEye, the livestream service that covers the state Legislature.
The Joint Committee on Legislative Organization approved the funds, to be paid out $50,000 per month starting Aug. 1, on a 9-1 vote, the nonpartisan Legislative Council announced Tuesday."

My new license plate arrived!
(It’s a reward for pledging to get the real one made. If enough people pledge support they’ll make an actual car license plate that will raise funds for the Bike Fed.)

In my neighborhood I’ve only seen Hong signs. Here’s mine and another a block away. There is another about 5 blocks away. Not seeing any for the other six candidates yet. (Granted, I’ve not been out much in the past two weeks.)
#wisconsin

I saw a bunch more Hong signs today. Two Kelda Roys signs (never seen any before) and still have not seen a Rodriguez sign.
#wisconsin

I was not expecting Crowley to be that close to Hong. 61% reporting still, though, I guess.

Today's bike ride to work sucked. Wearing a respirator for 30 minutes isn't very comfortable. I had to adjust it a few times and it was much worse breathing in the wildfire smoke so respirator it is.
I can only assume our climate will get worse as time goes on so I figured I might want to get used to this.

Fuck Oracle!

We Energies, Oracle Want Looser Financial Protections for Data Centers
Companies ask state regulators to require less collateral for new projects.

I was not expecting that. I hope you haven't voted, yet.
"Former Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes announced Thursday that he is dropping out of the Democratic race for governor in Wisconsin less than two weeks out from the primary."

is at the #Wisconsin state fair.

Remember, tomorrow is Election day, #Wisconsin.

This image gives me anxiety. #Wisconsin

I was not expecting that.
"Tech giant Oracle is dropping a lawsuit against Wisconsin utility regulators over new rules to protect ratepayers from the costs of meeting data centers' energy needs."
