Prep underway for Bernie Sanders event (Wisconsin)




Lines were forming as of mid-morning Friday outside Sheboygan South High School, several hours before Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders is scheduled to hold a town hall meeting.

The independent Vermont Senator is the first presidential candidate on either side to visit Sheboygan in advance of Wisconsin’s April 5 primary and is looking for supporters to help deliver a big win, with 86 delegates at stake.

The event is being held inside the South High School Acuity Fieldhouse, which can hold close to 3,400 people, with room for another 1,200 to watch on projectors in the commons area.

School officials have said the town hall will likely be among the largest community events to take place on district property in the last decade.

... survey tilted overwhelmingly to Bernie, propped up by an incredible showing on East Washington Ave. Three, four, five houses in a row had Bernie signs.

Disclaimer: This is one of the, if not the, most liberal part of Wisconsin.




We're having a rally and march in my small town tomorrow, despite the snowy forecast.

On Tuesday, I predict Bernie will carry Wisconin by 55% - 45%.
