GET ME REWRITE: AP' reporter Todd Richmond writes inexcusably misleading lede

 
And the headline writer does an equally poor job.

PBS Wisconsin, 11/6/2024


From 29 to 9.  That sounds pretty major.



Todd wrote this in paragraph 5:
Democrats had high hopes that the maps would enable them to seize control of the state Assembly for the first time in 13 years. That didn’t happen, but their wins still stood out given that Republican President-elect Donald Trump carried Wisconsin.

Though he seems to confuse campaign talk with election reality.
