MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Republicans determined to deliver Wisconsin for President Donald Trump next year will be doing it with a party working to rebuild after the departure of its two biggest stars and a rough midterm election that sent it reeling.
The Wisconsin GOP heads into its state convention that starts Friday with a plan that depends on rebuilding from the ground up after former House Speaker Paul Ryan retired and Gov. Scott Walker was voted out of office.
"We can win in this state; we've done it," said Republican Party activist Brian Westrate, an insurance agent from Fall Creek in western Wisconsin."One bad election cycle doesn't mean our conservative philosophy and ideology is dead. We just, perhaps, got too far away from all being in the same boat rowing in the same direction."
Jefferson said one thing the state party must address is how to spend its money more effectively, even as everyone agrees the Trump campaign intends to make Wisconsin a priority and provide the money necessary to compete.
