ICYMI: Split Ticket continued its collaboration with the Washington Post with a piece on how Trump's gains were disproportionately large in immigrant neighborhoods. wapo.st/4jbc1yg
The story of Wisconsin's Supreme Court election was turnout — while the state went from Trump +1 to Crawford +10 within 6 months, the large majority of that shift was driven by changes in who was voting, rather than voters changing their minds.
