Hope on the Horizon

Rebecca Kleefisch, President, 1848 Project - April 11, 2025

While most in the conservative and center-right communities are understandably going through the stages of grief over the April election results, there is cause for hope. At the 1848 Project, where center-right thinkers are recruited, trained, and given continuing education and professional development opportunities, there were wins on April 1. In fact, 2/3rds of the 1848 Project’s roster won their races, despite the 10 percentage point loss at the top of the ballot. That speaks life into three emerging political trends in Wisconsin:

  1. Relationships still matter in local races

  2. Absentee and Early voting can and do help increase local race vote totals

  3. Nonpartisan elections are where political farm teams are built

Water vapor is 11,000 times more abundant than methane (natural gas) and 60,000 times more abundant than nitrous oxide. These are the four most abundant greenhouse gases.
