WI Dems: with the turnout of Walker, what is the status of state legislature? Can new Gov

prevail against the once fully R-controlled state house? Will there be any chance of rolling back some of Walker's most horrific changes to the state?

1. It became even MORE republican.

However, a Dem Gov can stop some of the more horrible things they try to pass, and has better-than-line-item veto power. It is a good thing and we now hold the Gov seat when gerrymandering comes around again in 2020.

2. One step at a time. Geez.. Let's have a bit of afterglow.

Not much can happen until census. But Evers is in charge of redistricting so that will be a huge step.

3. Hardly an irrelevent question... The state legislators were up for reelection too & multiple states

did see some movement or even change of control in one state house or the other. Some here seem to think only statewide Federal positions are important, but the truth is that Dem failure to concentrate on both governorships and state houses in past decades has really hurt us, especially vis-a--vis redistricting. I encourage all to focus broadly in the future and not merely on the high profile positions.

4. Didn't say it wasn't. Just come on... Let's catch our breath.. We were up all night....

5. I asked for information on results from those who are following WI... That is hardly inappropriate.

Nor intended to diminish celebration of successes earned.

6. As I said, we were up all night.

No offense taken if no offense given. Thanks.
