8. Something else too is at play as Johnson won

I agree with what you stated: 2010 R turnout was driven by hate radio and FOX. When one of the best and brightest Dem., Russ Feingold (for whom my daughter worked at the time in DC), lost. It was likely complacency to vote that cycle.

Johnson nearly lost; yet, he won when he is in fact the dumbest, least-effective, unlikable slug (State Rep. Van Orden may be close as time may tell), corrupt, and a self-servicing Russian asset.

If a case could be made that we are unfairly represented on a Constitutional level (either State or U.S.) with a fair Wisconsin Judiciary, like Mich. we may stand a chance. So voting this Feb Judgeship may offer some hope in WI.
