Published: April 11, 2019, 7:30 p.m.

Wisconsin-native Dan Kaufman chronicles the evolution of the Badger State's political climate, from Scandinavian-settler roots, through the Progressive Era, to the "conservative conquest" that started in 2010 with the election of Scott Walker and the passage of Act 10. Dan places current dysfunction into historical context and shares his view on why Wisconsin is the center of the political world headed into 2020.
