Bar Graphing the Results of the 2012 Presidential and U.S. Senate Elections in the City of Wausau, Its Surrounding Communities, and the rest of Marathon County Wisconsin

Vote totals:  
Romney/Ryan - 36,568 
Obama-Biden  - 32,330

Tommy Thompson - 34,638
Tammy Baldwin     -  31,722

Romney-Thompson vote total difference:  1,930.

The Marathon County results follow the general pattern, if not the specific percentages, of CNN's exit poll graphic.


"Surrounding communities"* include
  • Village of Kronenwetter (population 7,210)
  • Town of Rib Mountain (pop. 6,825)
  • Village of Rothschild (pop.5,269)
  • City of Schofield ([pop. 2,169)
  • Town of Stettin (pop. 2,554)
  • Village of Weston (pop. 14,868)
*Based on my limited first-hand knowledge of the geography and residential development of the Wausau area.




Hat tip to Marathon County Clerk Nan Kottke for making detailed election results available online so promptly.
