Nugent, Pressler, And The Critical Importance Of An Overlooked Vote In Wisconsin
Voting has begun that could make or break this swing state in future elections

Less than 2 weeks out from the vote, it’s time for Conservatives to show they care about the little details that add up to important wins.
The past 2 months have been a masterclass in showing how important it is to have a judge on the bench who isn’t nakedly cheering for the DNC, even when neither law nor precedent support siding with activist Dem lawfare hacks.
What is NOT as obvious to the electorate is how important a Wisconsin vote that is already underway will play in whether Dems can run that exact play in Wisconsin during the lead-up to the Midterm elections.
The electorate is not the only part of Wisconsin that’s split pretty nearly down the middle. Their courts have the same dynamic. Whichever candidate (and therefore party) wins the vote today will hold the majority in State politics there… which can have implications on anything from election rules to the daily aspects of living our lives.
Here’s Ted Nugent’s recent appeal for conservatives to get involved in voting, or persuading their conservative friends in the area to do the same.

Shame that the liberals ran him off the Wisconsin County fair circuit. Did an epic show in Racine in summer of 2016. Spent the evening riffing against Hillary between songs.

And here’s Scott Pressler — who did heroic work in signing up GOP voters in flipping Pennsylvania red in the last election — giving an update on what the initial results of Wisconsin’s early voting mean for our chances and get-out-the-vote effort there.
Wisconsin, we really need to pick it up in early voting.
Tomorrow, I’ll be knocking on doors & chasing ballots in Waukesha. https://t.co/sIGHlkvv26

The post he was quote-tweeting (link) goes into details about the turnout numbers favoring the Dems for now… but in a way that leaves optimism for the GOP if we can light a fire under our asses and take this job seriously. Here’s one part of the multi-part message:
The first day of Wisconsin, early in-person voting is in the books, and each candidate has something to like.
🔵Susan Crawford – Turnout for day one was a little light. 34,036 voters showed up, more than double the first day in 2023 but short of what Schimel wants to see. A modest turnout ensures Dane County’s oversized influence and prevents R’s from running up the numbers in the rural.
🔴Brad Schimel – Where the vote came from yesterday was good news for Republicans. Waukesha led all counties in raw vote turnout (a rarity), and Ozaukee + Washington counties led overall turnout rates compared to previous general elections.
If you’re a Republican, you love to see where the early vote comes from. If you’re a Democrat, you love to see that the volume is modest, at best.
Susan Crawford remains in pole position, and early voting continues through Sunday, March 30th.

Dems, still reeling from the curb-stomping they received in November have announced Wisconsin is their first big investment since the election.
DEMS are taking this vote seriously enough to get a phone bank up and running to drive turnout.
The Democratic National Committee is set to announce on Tuesday its earliest-ever new election cycle investment into the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, which will see Dane County Judge Susan Crawford, the Democratic-backed candidate, take on Republican-backed Brad Schimel, a former state attorney general and current Waukesha County judge, ABC News has learned exclusively. — ABC
If anyone was interested in knocking on doors, or working as part of a phone bank (which, aside from sending money might be the easiest way to support him from a distance) you could look at his website.
