The co-chair of the Wisconsin Green Party slammed a #DNC effort to keep Jill Stein off the state’s presidential ballot as a “high risk, zero benefit action” that would likely cost Kamala Harris for President, 2024 votes. The state Wisconsin Court System / Wisconsin Supreme Court Monday refused to hear the suit filed by a staffer with the Democratic National Committee arguing the #Greens were ineligible to place a candidate on the #Wisconsin ballot. The court’s ruling didn’t offer any rationale other than plaintiff David Strange “is not entitled to the relief he seeks.” State Green Co-chair Michael White said if the suit had been successful, it would’ve only prompted party members to write in Stein’s name on the November ballot. “They’ve already lost voters who were uncommitted who might’ve voted for Kamala because of the actions by the Democratic Party of Wisconsin trying to push her off the 📮 #ballot,” White said.

David #Plouffe, a top adviser to Kamala Harris for President, 2024’s campaign, says the campaign is “throwing everything” into Wisconsin in the final 10 weeks of the presidential 📮 #election. “Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania are the top of the list in terms of where you want to put your effort,” Plouffe said on WISN-TV’s “#UpFront,” which is produced in partnership with WisPolitics.com. “And here’s where the excitement matters. She’ll have the financial resources and the people resources. Why? You’re throwing everything you can into #Wisconsin, #Michigan, #Pennsylvania, and I mean everything.” Harris brought on #Plouffe, who managed former President Barack #Obama’s first presidential bid, after President Joe #Biden dropped out of the race. “This is an unprecedented situation,” Plouffe said. “You basically got to build and win a presidential campaign in less than 100 days. So I’ve known #KamalaHarris a long time. I know the #campaign team well. So they’re just looking to add some arms and legs on top of what is already a great #campaign.” Plouffe added the ground game in the key swing states like Wisconsin will be critical. ⏭ Read more at https://lnkd.in/gS5BtVvy

U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin said #SocialSecurity and #Medicare are at risk if Donald J. Trump is elected in November during remarks at the 2024 Democratic National Convention Committee in #Chicago Thursday night. The Madison Dem told delegates her mother was a teen struggling with #addiction when she was born, and she never met her father. Baldwin noted she was raised by her grandparents, David and Doris. “In every way a child needs, my grandparents were there for me. And as they grew older, it was my privilege to be there for them,” Baldwin said. “So, when I work to protect Medicare and Social Security, I do it with the personal knowledge of what those big programs meant in small, but deeply meaningful ways to my grandparents.” Read more at https://lnkd.in/gnEjZbzQ 📍 Full DNC coverage at https://lnkd.in/g4867mm5

#Dem presidential nominee Kamala Harris for President, 2024 vowed at a campaign rally in #Milwaukee Tuesday night that #GOP rival Donald J. Trump For President 2024, Inc. will “face a consequence” in November for his role in overturning #RoevWade. Speaking at the Fiserv Forum, where the #RNC2024 was held, Harris said Trump hand-selected three Supreme Court justices, knowing they would vote to overturn the 1973 decision that had guaranteed the right to an #abortion. She also knocked Trump for saying in a CBS interview earlier this week that he had no regrets about his role in the ruling being overturned, adding: “I did something that most people felt was undoable.” “Bad behavior should result in a consequence,” Harris said. “We will make sure he does face a consequence, and that will be at the 📮 #ballot in November.” Harris added: “I promise you, when I am president of the United States, and Congress passes a bill to restore the protections of Roe v. Wade, I will proudly sign it into #law.” https://lnkd.in/gaAPefHc

When President #JoeBiden left the #Democratic top of the ticket and endorsed his vice president, the move sparked praise for Biden’s move and a surge of enthusiasm and money for Kamala Harris for President, 2024. Party activists serving as delegates to the 2024 Democratic National Convention Committee in #Chicago WisPolitics.com interviewed share that enthusiasm. “President Joe Biden is an excellent president, and I knew he would do the right thing for the country,” said Deb Dassow, a delegate from Ozaukee County. “Vice President #KamalaHarris has the experience, the intelligence, and the fortitude to be an excellent #president. She could not have gotten where she is today without being tough and smart. “I attended her first rally in West Allis; amazing energy. I have done doors and will continue to do doors for Harris. As the Ozaukee County chair and 6th CD chair, I have helped organize events for all of our Assembly, state Senate, and congressional candidates. The energy and willingness of folks to volunteer is over the top. Our small office had over 70 people watching President Biden’s speech when he told the country he would not accept the nomination. The requests for yard signs at our OZAUKEE COUNTY FAIR booth was like I have never seen it. People are truly excited.” 🔎 Read more and follow along with us at the #DNC2024 all week. https://lnkd.in/gfR7Xfaj

GOP VP nominee JD Vance at the Milwaukee Police Association today said southern border policies under the #Biden-#Harris administration “make our communities less safe even as far north as #Wisconsin.” “It means #Mexican #drugcartels operating in our communities,” Vance said. “It means people dying of #fentanyl.” Vance again blamed Biden-Harris border policies for scarce municipal resources across the United States because he said 💰 millions of dollars are being spent “#housing, sheltering and providing #medicalcare for people who shouldn’t be here.” “Those are the people who have come in across Kamala Harris for President, 2024’s wide open southern #border,” Vance said. “When you take millions of dollars that should go to our local police departments and you put it into sheltering and providing medical care for #illegalaliens, it is the least in our community, the least of these in our #communities, who suffer the most.” Read more at https://lnkd.in/gbgRYtBB
