Wisconsin Voters Are Not Dumb

Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey are joined by WISN political director Matt Smith to break down Wisconsin’s Supreme Court debate, including what stood out, how both parties are framing the race, and why, as Matt puts it, “Wisconsin voters are not dumb.” They also discuss pending legislation on Governor Tony Evers’ desk and the growing role of outside money in a supposedly nonpartisan election. Later, the conversation turns to political rhetoric, decency in public discourse, and the influence of podcasts and alternative media on trust in institutions. Annex Wealth Management CEO Dave Spano joins for a Monday Market Preview on economic uncertainty tied to the Iran conflict and the job market, while Steve and Kristin wrap with lighter topics including voter turnout predictions, mail-in voting, and the cultural ripple effects of GLP-1 drugs.
