Off-year Voting Results

There were four things on the ballot in yesterday’s off-year election. Two in Wisconsin: a state Supreme Court justice and a constitutional amendment requiring voter photo ID. Plus two House seats in Florida. 

Republicans won three of the four, the two FL House seats which stayed Republican, and the voter ID requirement which passed. Democrats won the Wisconsin Supreme Court seat, which of course is being spun by the legacy media as the most important of the four.

By my count, the GOP won three out of four. That is a decent night’s work, but a clean sweep would have been nicer still. 

Musk threw a ton of money at the WI judge election, to no avail. He isn’t a natural politician and WI is a purple state. Was it a referendum on Musk himself … maybe in part.
