Dear GOP: Calm Down, It’s Just Wisconsin
By Jacob Lane
If you’ve been watching the news lately, you’d think the Republican Party had been wiped off the map.
Contrary to the panic from so-called “expert” politicos, the GOP still controls the presidency and both chambers of Congress — and, yes, still exists. One off-year judicial race in one state doesn’t change that.
That’s not to say Republicans weren’t hoping for a win in Wisconsin last month. A victory would’ve secured a conservative majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court and been viewed as a stamp of approval for the Trump administration, just four months in.
But though the GOP came up short in a hard-fought campaign, the broader picture is far from bleak. Results from Wisconsin, paired with the GOP's success in both special congressional elections in Florida, should give Republicans plenty to feel good about.
The Sunshine State delivered not one, but two victories for the GOP. Republican candidates in Florida’s 1st and 6th Congressional Districts coasted to double-digit wins, each by nearly 14 points over their Democrat opponents.
