    George - where did you get that info?

    This is from county.milwaukee.gov:

    You can't see the heading, but the first number is Biden second is Trump:

    Same site, registration vs votes cast:

    Interestingly I found a file from the Wisconsin elections site from 11/1 showing registrations by ward and the numbers were already higher than the ones in your graphic. And that obviously can't include same-day registrations.

      Kimberly Strassel tweeted it. Here's the link she tweeted (it was in my post as well). I know nothing of this source, or it's reliability, btw.

        Maybe I'll send her the links to the official sources so she can publish a correction.

                                Right, he just posts some 'analysis' and says her sources are the city and state but doesn't link to anything.

                                It took me less than 3 minutes to debunk this.

                                      You should worry. Because we ARE moving into dangerous territory. It no longer matters which one of them wins, the American people have shown that we've crossed the tipping point. The fools outnumber the sane. Over the next 20 years the majority of sane ones will be dead. The United States is a nation is dying.

                                      I have no faith or confidence in America any more. And I don't have any desire to remain in it as it dies.
