for the zillionth time, the idea that Biden had a suspiciously good performance in city of Milwaukee is bonkers
He got almost the same vote as Clinton in the city of MKE:
2016 Clinton wins city by 58 pts and 143,246 votes
2020 Biden wins city by 59 pts and 146,247 votes 1/4 https://twitter.com/Rasmussen_Poll/status/1327931164552802305
The idea that 2020 turnout in Milwaukee is “suspicious” is also bonkers.
City of Milwaukee was 1 of the only places in Wisconsin where turnout did NOT increase.
2016: 248K votes cast
2020: 248K votes cast
2/4
Biden DID do better than Clinton in the COUNTY of Milwaukee -- because he did better in the suburbs, just like he did nationally.
But even in the county of MKE, turnout rose less than it did in all but 1 other county in WI
3/4
and of course nobody measures turnout in WI as a pctg of pre-election registered voters, because WI has same-day registration and tons of voters register on election day, as always. Everyone in both parties in WI knows all this
