Democrats win several key races in Wisconsin Senate, breaking Republican supermajority
Tuesday’s election results for the Wisconsin State Legislature were mixed. Wisconsin Democrats won several key state Senate races, breaking the Republican 22-seat supermajority and laying the groundwork for Democrats to compete for a majority in 2026. In the Assembly, Republicans appear to have held their majority with many incumbents defeating their challengers.
New legislative maps, which were adopted in February after the state Supreme Court ruled the old maps were an unconstitutional gerrymander, gave Democrats the opportunity to run in competitive districts in many cases for the first time in over a decade.
Half of the state senate was up for reelection this year, and Democrats ran in each Senate district.
Democrats won five districts they were targeting on Tuesday — ousting Republican incumbents and winning newly created open seats.

Democrats broke supermajorities in WI and NC (barely), yet both states went to Trump. Abortion rights won in AZ, NV, and MT, yet it looks like all three states are going to Trump (not that MT is a surprise). That's a pretty damning indictment of the Harris campaign.
Joke will be on all of them when the Federal ban on abortion rolls out.
Next time maybe she won't be a black woman!
She should have stuck with Indian. /s
I really wish this mattered.
