Juneau County ranks 16th among Wisconsin's 72 counties in having the largest percentage of its presidential vote for Donald Trump in 2010, eight years after Barack Obama carried the county twice.

3rd-party candidates received 27% of vote in 1992, 16.4% of vote in 1996, 4.5% in 2016;
(Alabama segregationist George Wallace received 10.1% of the vote in 1968)
In a word, no.
If the Democratic collapse in rural western and northern Wisconsin was the most dramatic feature of the state’s 2016 election map, then the unchecked Republican decline in suburban southern Wisconsin is the most arresting feature of the 2022 map. It is all the more striking when you consider that Republicans had reason to believe they might steady their suburban ship this year, with Donald Trump not on the ballot, with a Democrat in the White House who has poor job ratings, with crime and inflation playing prominent roles in the campaign. But that didn’t happen.
