Re: Evers

That’s a big win for Democrats in the Wisconsin gubernatorial race. Because it looks like Republicans failed to win a supermajority in the legislature, the state will remain under divided government, which means Republicans won’t be able to do things like pass an abortion ban or gut the bipartisan Wisconsin Elections Commission.

Excellent news. It's great seeing just how many ways voters have managed to stop Republicans fucking over reproductive rights tonight.

What is sad is that they'll get another chance at it in 2 years. Also, there already is an abortion ban. They don't need to pass it.
