the number of absentee ballots already turned in is at a record high. That's a good sign. If people do not turn out in large numbers to vote at their polling place, the primary will happen anyhow, based on absentee voting.

Wisconsin does not require any reason for voting absentee by mail, so more and more people are doing so.

Every election is determined by whatever percentage of people actually vote. In some cases, where COVID-19 cuts down on the number of people who vote in person, elections will be decided, still, based on the votes of people who voted.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
