thread of Milwaukee County Spring 2020 election maps

First up, Wisconsin Supreme Court. The places Karofsky won are in Green. Purple shows were Kelly won.

Democratic Presidential Primary. Bernie did well in Riverwest, Bay View, and the neighborhoods of the near South Side. He also did pretty good in the less-affluent parts of the East Side. The North Side of Milwaukee and the suburbs went for Biden. We'll see that coalition again.

Here is Milwaukee County Executive, the night's closest race. Crowley narrowly bested Larson. Larson did well on the East, South, and West sides of Milwaukee City. Crowley did great on the North Side & narrowly carried most of the suburbs. This strength in the suburbs was key.

Tom Barrett easily swept to victory in the Milwaukee Mayoral race, despite Taylor's quite strong showing in parts of the Near West and North Side.

One election did unify the city, however. The MPS referendum won a remarkable 78% of the vote, carrying virtually all areas of the city. Support was weakest on the extreme South and Southwest sides. These were the areas that led the defeat of the last referendum in the early 90s
