I live in Western Wisconsin near the Minnesota border. We have had no less than four people knock on our door handing out Trump leaflets. I’ve assured all four that we will be voting on election day and voting for Trump. I have never in my life seen this many people Canvas like they are doing this year. The only thing that makes me sad is they should have a better record of recording which houses have been hit so they don’t waste their time coming back again and again.

Funny that. I live a few miles south of you, signs for Dem candidates outnumber Republicans five or six to one. I see canvassers daily walking around with Dem candidate literature, most of 'em are at least 50 if not 60 years old (I'm 76) so the disparity must be something to do with rural vs. not-so-rural perhaps?

Whatever the case, I'm voting straight Republican once again this year, just like in 2020 and in 2016. I graduated high school in 1967, voted Democrat until McCarthy got screwed at Chicago.

THAT showed me how things were going to be from then on and I'm sad to say "I could have told you so!" even then.

Grifters, all of 'em.

Which of you lives in or near LaCrosse, out of curiosity? I understand that part of Wisconsin is heavily Democrat, but I don't understand the reason.

I am due East of St. Paul. When I moved here in 2006, the area was 75% conservative. We even had a local newspaper that was decent and fairly balanced. Now, it’s more 50-50 and it will fall to the way of MN if people don’t wake up soon.

10/13/24: Bad habit. And dead people voting.
