A we turn the calendar page to September, it’s back to political attention for our state.
When it comes to the political action over the weekend here in Wisconsin, a Tim Walz staffer is recovering with a broken arm after a crash on I-794 yesterday.
Two vans carrying members of the media crashed yesterday afternoon. A few of the media members were injured in the wreck, and the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office says one of Walz’s staffers broke their arm. Reporters in the van say a car cut them off from the rest of Walz’s motorcade, and the two vans sped-up to try and catch-up. That’s when the first van crashed into the car, and the second van crashed into the first.
Overall, a new poll says Kamala Harris has a 29-point lead with young voters in Wisconsin. The poll from the group Voters of Tomorrow gives Harris a 54-25 lead over former President Trump with voters under the age of 29.
The poll asked 452 people about their support in the November election, and pollsters say there’s a four-and-a-half percent margin of error. On its website, Voters of Tomorrow describes itself as a “Gen Z-led” non-profit with chapters in 20 states “and a volunteer presence in all 50.”
