Percentages don’t always matter or tell the story. It doesn’t matter what the majority is doing if you can find like minded people to associate with- a small percentage at a large school such as UW can mean plenty of people. Try contacting the campus group and see how they feel about the campus. College is not about promoting the status quo but about challenging it. Much time can be spent debating issues of all sorts, and not along party lines. Wisconsin voters, btw, are independent. This means many are never members of any political party but vote for the candidates, not their party affiliation. You do not register in any party to vote in the open primary, some wish you weren’t restricted to a single party in choosing candidates in a primary election! Until things were changed some years ago the state could have the governor and lt governor coming from different parties. Ripon, WI is the birthplace of the Republican Party.
