GOP hemorrhage continues

Wisconsin Democrats on Tuesday flipped a state Senate seat in a GOP-leaning district, prompting excitement among local party officials

Patty Schachtner (D) defeated state Rep. Adam Jarchow (R) in a special election to replace a senator who left for a job in Gov. Scott Walker’s (R) administration, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.

Schachtner, the chief medical examiner in Wisconsin’s St. Croix County, won in the state’s 10th Senate district, which voted heavily for President Trump and Republican nominee Mitt Romney in the past two presidential elections.
