Union members aren’t actually very Democratic leaning these days even in a state like Wisconsin, and the ‘right to work’ law means that Wisconsin is noticeably less unionised than the US as a whole. The reason Democrats are still competitive in Wisconsin is that they get half decent numbers in rural areas, particularly in the west/south west of the state (similar to Iowa, Minnesota etc). Conversely, the reason it’s not a Democratic leaning state is that the Milwaukee suburbs are incredibly right wing and vote more like they are in the Deep South than Mid-West. Therefore, if Wisconsin started voting like it ‘should’, it wouldn’t do the Republicans much good, and may even help Democrats. The WOW counties did swing against Trump in 2020 especially Waukesha county. He counteracted it by gaining rural swings. There are countervailing trends on both sides.

If we want to believe those ExitPolls, UnionMembers in MI & WI differ. ExitPoll of NORC (univ.Chicago) for Fox&AP: Their rivals of EdisonResearch US-wide: MidWest as a whole: Yes, that is the difference I was taking about. I would guess that highly publicized fights between Scott Walker & the Unions in WI made the Union support for Democrats firmer then other states. I am not sure but I think that the Unionized vote in Michigan is more racially diverse then other Midwestern states.

Always sad, when MapMakers use WishyWashy-colours instead of the classical and well visible antagonism Red vs. Blue/Green:

The defeat of a future squad member was a very pleasant surprise 🙂

That's a slightly different pattern to Biden's recent narrow win there.

Only one "traditional Republican" county looks a bit low given the state's electoral history.
