MILWAUKEE — As thousands of GOP delegates, donors, legislators and activists descend on Milwaukee this week, Wisconsin will again find itself at the center of the political universe.
It’s a spotlight the perennial swing state — where four of the last six presidential elections were decided by a margin of less than 1 percentage point — has long been accustomed to.
President Joe Biden has visited the battleground five times so far in 2024, including his July 5 trip, when he made the state capital, Madison, a leading stop on his post-debate tour. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump has held three rallies in Wisconsin since January.
