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.

It was tongue in cheek. She's not a truth seeker.

Now you trust the media more than the state government?

I do worry a bit that we could be moving into some dangerous territory.

The only link in the piece was a static map of the wards from 2011.

It took me less than 3 minutes to debunk this.

Better postpone the counting and give Trump emergency powers, because we have a full blown Zombie Apocalypse on our hands...

We need to. Nothing will change until the manure hits the oscillator.
After 2000, Florida has done a better job.

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.

Yes. Populism at its core is about undermining institutions. Why should we expect the institution of the ballot box to be immune from its effects?
