Green Bay, Wis. — I reported earlier on Wisconsin Senate candidate Mandela Barnes’s stop by Sturgeon Bay, where abortion and Roe were the unmistakable themes as the Democrat courted an affluent audience.

Social issues were not mentioned beyond a vague “love who you wish to love.” Otherwise, it was all kitchen table, framed by class warfare.
