We talk with a WPR state capital reporter and Wisconsin political scientist about the partial recount now underway in the state, at the request of President Donald Trump. Then we ask callers to let us know whether they’ve already put up winter holiday decorations. And we learn about how different levels of interest in politics can correspond with different values.
