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."

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.

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.)

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

There's more chaos in the Wisconsin Gubernatorial Primary!

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.

More charging infrastructure in #Wisconsin is always a good thing.
"More than 40 electric vehicle charging stations are to be installed throughout Wisconsin with funding from a $25 million federal grant.
The money is provided through the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act passed during the Biden administration. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation will oversee the project, according to a Sept. 8 announcement from Gov. Tony Evers."

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

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.

is at the #Wisconsin state fair.
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?

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.”

Remember, tomorrow is Election day, #Wisconsin.
I saw the license plate and said "Hell Yeah!" then saw the bumper sticker and said "Fuck No!"

This image gives me anxiety. #Wisconsin
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."

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."

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