Voters in Waukesha, Wisconsin โ€” a Republican-leaning Milwaukee suburb โ€” just elected a Democrat as mayor, according to The Associated Press.

Alicia Halvensleben, the Democratic president of the city's Common Council, defeated Scott Allen, a result that could signal a political shift in the suburbs.

Did you say Republican โ€œleaning?โ€ Waukesha County is deep red. It was +20 points Trump in the last election. This is a huge win.

The more I see we anti Maga voters showing up; the more concerned I am about our weak politicians on the left come November. Is there an independent that is anti Israel, anti Pedo that can save us? Change the law so Mamdani can run

Love hearing good news!

This didn't make the news except locally: The Village of Hilton, NY on March 18th, also elected a Democrat as Mayor - for the 1st time in 22 years. Hilton is within the town of Parma, NY. Parma voted 2 to 1 in 2024 for Dโ˜ญะ˜ald TะฏUMโ‚ฝ.

Change is in the air!

It doesn't get much more RED than Waukesha, far more than "Republican-leaning".

โ€œRepublican-leaningโ€ is a MASSIVE understatement. Waukesha is a former hot bed of the KKK and the absolute heart of the Wisconsin GOPโ€™s base. This flip is a SEISMIC fracture in the Republicanโ€™s future in Wisconsin.

Waukesha isn't just 'Republican-leaning'; it's the epicenter of Republican influence and leadership in Wisconsin. This mayoral race result is amazing.

Waukesha is the most republican county in the state. This is kinda big news, and doesnโ€™t bode well for the GOP in November.

Waukesha and Brookfield have historically sucked. Good to see inroads in enemy territory.

Brookfield has allegedly shifted nearly 50% Democrat. New Berlin 40%. Democratic groups have been making in-roads lately.

Actually, the 12-14 point shift in the Milwaukee suburbs was the smallest in the state. (In percentage points, a little bigger than Milwaukee & Dane Counties, but in those deep blue counties there weren't so many voters left to switch.)
Rural & small-city counties shifted by 25 and even 30 points.

Republicans don't need have to have any sense of decency or patriotism to impeach Trump. They just need to care about avoiding the biggest election wipeout in U.S. history if he's still in office this fall.

And we should prepare for attempts to corrupt or sabotage the elections if so.

Let me amend that: we should prepare to defeat attempts to corrupt or sabotage the elections *regardless*
