And WI used to be so liberal. Our motto is FORWARD. We had actual Socialist pols here in charge. WI used to be so progressive. We actually grew under socialists. But then those damn Mega churches started moving in and so many southern Christians were moved here by those churches.

They built whole new subdivisions around those churches which became repub districts. That's called "bleeding in an area" moving in political numbers ( people)to change the demographic makeup of the area. Way too many southerners in the state today.
