In place of our regular PoCoDems monthly meeting in December, we will be joining the St Croix and Pierce County Dems for their holiday party to celebrate the wins in Wisconsin!
From the StCroixCtyDems:
Get your tickets now for our annual holiday party—all made a little extra merry by the election of Tony Evers as Governor, Mandela Barnes as Lt. Governor, Josh Kaul as Attorney General, and Sarah Godlewski as State Treasurer—not to mention the re-election of Tammy Baldwin to the U.S. Senate.
This year, our speakers include:
– Democratic Party of Wisconsin Chair, Martha Lanning
– U.S. Congressional candidate, Margaret Engebretson
– Wisconsin State Senator, Patty Schachtner
We’ll kick things off at 6 pm with a cocktail hour and fine art silent auction. Dinner and speakers will begin at 7 pm.
The deadline to purchase your tickets is December 3rd, but if you sign up today you’ll really help us — and Gibby’s — plan appropriately for the event.

Interesting look at state control by legislators and the Republican Party. Click on WI on the maps to see a historical trend in party Control.
ALEC’s influence is mentioned, and the tendency for some Democrats to focus more on the federal races than state, to their detriment. I hope we have learned that state elections matter.

Thank you to all Veterans for your service to our nation. We are all indebted to you.
