We spent Wednesday’s hour of La Crosse Talk PM talking about how unique Wisconsin voters are — especially when it comes to statewide races — and, basically, how unpredictable they can be.

This comes as experts try to predict the outcomes of races between Sen. Ron Johnson and Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes in the US Senate, or Gov. Tony Evers and Tim Michels for governor, and are baffled by past election outcomes in the state.

We also discussed debates — why some choose not to participate — voter turnout and took some calls.
