And like Obama, Trump has urged Wisconsinites to vote early.
"Brad Schimel is running against Radical Left Liberal Susan Crawford, who has repeatedly given child molesters, rapists, women beaters, and domestic abusers ‘light’ sentences.

All Voters who believe in Common Sense should GET OUT TO VOTE EARLY for Brad Schimel," Trump declared in a Truth Social post last week.
