Wisconsin GOP looking to rebound from April election as 2024 presidential race approaches
Fox News
Wisconsin will likely be a battleground state in this year's presidential election. Republicans are looking to bounce back after losing majority control of the Supreme Court in April.
"The wind is at our backs, but in Wisconsin no one should ever take anything for granted," said state Democratic Party Chairman Ben Wikler. "I haven’t met a single Democrat who thinks we can rest easy."
Democratic candidates, including Gov. Tony Evers and President Joe Biden, have won 14 of the past 17 statewide elections. In April, Democratic-backed Supreme Court candidate Janet Protasiewicz's 11-point win over the GOP-supported candidate proved once again the power of abortion as an issue for Democrats. She ran as a supporter of abortion rights, and for revisiting Republican-drawn political district maps, in a race that broke turnout records.
