Michels and the League had an event in Baraboo to announce the endorsement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m proud to have earned the support of these Capitalists, these risk takers, who sacrifice and work hard to chase their American Dream,\u201d Michels tweeted. \u201cBig Government edicts during COVID. Governor Evers\u2019 illegal shutdown orders pushed many past the brink. Those that survived now face a labor shortage and runaway inflation. But, November 8th is near.

Evers, who narrowly defeated then-Governor Scott Walker in 2018, has been able to block much of the legislative initiatives of Republicans, who control the state Assembly and Senate, and are expected to retain that control.<\/p>\n<p>If elected, Michels could sign legislation in the state regarding school choice, election integrity, abortion, and other critical issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Johnson For The Win?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After months of outlets <a href=\"https:\/\/madison.com\/news\/local\/govt-and-politics\/elections\/recent-polls-show-ron-johnson-increasing-lead-over-mandela-barnes-in-u-s-senate-race\/article_5e04eabf-3187-5f2f-aa86-5839b19f49f4.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">declaring<\/a> incumbent Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) as one of the most vulnerable seats for Republicans to hold onto in November, Johnson appears to be taking the lead, according to several polls.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, Democrat Senate candidate Mandela Barnes has claimed that he has hauled in $20 million in third-quarter fundraising, easily the most money his campaign has raised so far.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the race will likely come down to whether voters are more motivated by abortion, which Barnes has focused on, or crime and inflation, which has been Johnson\u2019s emphasis.<\/p>\n<p><em>Stay tuned for part two on Friday.<\/p>\n<p><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to this week\u2019s\u00a0Midterm Exam (part one) \u2014 complete with tidbits and stories from races around the country.
