In 2010, Tom Barrett Beat Scott Walker in the City of Appleton

The portion of the city within Outagamie County.

Appleton 2010 population:  72,623
  • Outagamie County: 60,045
  • Calumet County:  11,088
  • Winnebago County:  1,490


Similar results in the Winnebago County portion of Appleton.
  • 2010:  Barrett 130, Walker 109.
  • 2012:  Walker 161, Barrett 137.  

Will Appleton voters give Mary Burke some breathing room?

The Appleton Post-Crescent provides some encouragement.






The Post-Crescent also endorsed Penny Bernard Schaber, who currently serves in the State Assembly and is running for the State Senate seat that Republican Mike Ellis (Neenah) has held since 1982.   Ellis chose not to run for re-election.

I'd like to think that Burke + Schaber will add up to some atypical winning margins for Democratic candidates in the Fox Valley.
