Craig Gilbert explains in Journal Sentinel:
For this analysis, I ranked Wisconsin’s 72 counties by the number of votes they generated in the 2026 midterm, then focused on the 15 with the greatest voting power.
This a list that includes the blue bastions of Milwaukee and Dane, the traditionally Republican “WOW” counties outside Milwaukee, the purple “BOW” counties of Brown, Outagamie and Winnebago, and a mix of others from blue La Crosse and Eau Claire in the west to purple Kenosha and Racine in the south to red Marathon in the north.
Collectively, Republican Gov. Scott Walker won these 15 counties by just under a point in 2014. Then Democrat Tony Evers won them by 9 points against Walker in 2018. Then Evers won them by 14 points against Tim Michels in 2022. And in this last election, Democrat David Crowley won them by 20 points against Tiffany.
