There's Dark Money Buried in the Complicated State of Wisconsin

"It's fitting that the current demand to audit/recount the presidential vote is centered on Wisconsin. The transformation of the state where so much of the progressive improvements to self-government began into the independent Republic of Griftsylvania (Scott Walker, assistant manager for sales) is one of the great triumphs of the money power and its lickspittles in modern American politics. Further, if you want to see how long and hard a pull it's going to be to roll any of this back, you should check out the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel's account of one race for a seat on the state's supreme court. (Reminder: an elected judiciary is the second-worst idea in American politics. Thank you.)"
