Blue wave UPDATE. 2016 presidential election buyer's remorse in Grant County, Wisconsin?




As in Jackson County, Grant County twice voted for Barack Obama over his GOP opponents by double-digit margins.  And then in a county where 95.2 of the population is white, compared to 61.3% nationally, a significant number of voters responded to Trump's MAGA dog whistle.

Looks as though a blue wave has reached the southwestern corner of Wisconsin.


The same caveat I shared in the initial post on this thread also applies here.





2012-2016 % change in vote by party
  •  +20.4%  Republicans
  •   -26.1%  Democrats
