The predictions are for very low turnout statewide tomorrow. Even here in Milwaukee, with a judicial race and school board races on the ballot, turnout is likely to be low if history is any guide. This is one of those elections where, in fact, a few votes here or there can really make a difference.
So, use today to rally all the faithful you know to get out to vote for Burmaster, and, in Milwaukee, Blewett, Hardin, and Hagen for the schol board.
(As a side note, the linked article above does restate this subtle point about Underheim's having been abandoned by the GOP: "But perhaps the most telling sign of the state of the race is what has not happened: There has not been a large wave of support for Underheim from the Republican-oriented power bases that might have fueled a bigger challenge by him. [. . .] The only political logic that can be put to the situation is that those who could have brought a lot more to the table in support of Underheim concluded that the Oshkosh legislator's bid, launched just before the filing deadline three months ago, had little chance of success."
And I did catch the WPTV debate between Underheim and Burmaster; my opinion has not changed. I TiVoed the "Sunday Night" with the two of them and Gousha, but it was on past my bedtime and I haven't seen it yet to comment.)
