With absentee ballots going out
and now being arguably
into the final stretch
who is breaking through
on the Democratic side for
candidates for governor and why?
I mean, it seems like it still
could be anybody's ballgame.
There's a lot of spending
going on right now.
I guess if
they say it's not a sprint
it's a marathon
but we've crossed
the 20-mile marker and we're
getting to the point where
people are going to have to
start making up their minds
about who their candidate
is going to be.
I think the Democrats have
an embarrassment of riches.
I think they are fighting
they're running downhill
because the Republicans are so
in trouble because of the
record of Donald Trump
and the fact that
their nominee, Tom Tiffany
is a radical extremist
who is completely and totally
tied to Trump
in every single way.
I don't agree that there's
it's anybody's ball game.
One has already dropped out
Missy Hughes.
I wouldn't be surprised
if two more dropped out in July.
We got 38 days to go.
I think it's really three people
who are seriously
in contention to win this.
It's Francesca Hong
legislator from Madison
Mandela Barnes
former lieutenant governor
and current lieutenant governor
Sara Rodriguez.
I think those are the only three
who have a legitimate shot
to win at this point
based on all the polling.
We will have
a new Marquette poll
out in about 10 days
here in Wisconsin.
That'll sort of
give everyone the picture
of where things are at.
But what we know from
private polls and some other
publicly released polls is
those are the top three.
Hong is the one that's surging
at this point.
