Fall 2026: Who’s Trying to Sway Our Elections?

9.25.26

Here we go, Wisconsin. With just over a month until Election Day, we’re seeing it all: digital ads, mailers, TV and radio, and canvassing operations.

Everyone is tapped into the highly competitive, contentious governor’s race, not an unusual sight in our purple Wisconsin. And thanks to temporary fair maps at the state level, we’ll see some of the most competitive legislative elections in decades. This is a huge win because our government works best when it accurately reflects and is responsive to voters. 

We also know that, with zero restrictions on big money and wealthy special interests, competition brings along more money. Outside groups with dark money and fittingly vague names are funneling money faster than you’re losing hope for your fantasy team.
