Wisconsin's recent primary election saw the highest turnout in 60 years for a presidential year partisan primary, with over 26% of the voting-age population participating. Voters rejected two significant constitutional amendments that would have limited the governor's power to spend federal funds, reflecting significant Democratic enthusiasm. Madison experienced an unprecedented 45% turnout, the highest for a fall partisan primary in at least 40 years. The election also led to the defeat of several incumbent legislators, including prominent election conspiracy theorist Janel Brandtjen. Meanwhile, Minnesota's primary election experienced notably lower turnout, but significant races included the challenge to Rep. Ilhan Omar and various local contests in St. Cloud. These elections are setting the stage for intense general elections in November.
