Let's pair these two Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel headlines from July 13, 2011.
Gov. Walker, lawmakers fare poorly in poll.
59% disapprove of Walker's handling of job as Governor.
56% disapprove of Senate and Assembly Republicans handling of their jobs.
Surprisingly high turnout in Democratic Senate primaries.
"Some observers" (see below) expected a low turnout. As University of Wisconsin-Madison political scientist Charles Franklin noted, the turnout in some Senate districts was "gigantic", at least for a time of the year when elections are considered as rare as a snowfall.
I guess the Journal-Sentinel would be surprised, as this is what the editorial and news staffs have been doing the past 6 months.
