Steve Scaffidi is joined by WISN-TV Political Director Matt Smith to break down another dramatic shakeup in Wisconsin’s Democratic gubernatorial primary after David Crowley re-entered the race, Sara Rodriguez exited, and Governor Tony Evers threw his support behind Crowley. They also discuss why the latest Marquette Law School Poll may already be outdated and what to watch for in the upcoming primary debate. Later, Annex Wealth Management CEO Dave Spano joins for a Monday Market Preview, and Brewers outfielder Sal Frelick and Best Buddies Wisconsin’s Jennifer Walkowiak stop by to talk about their upcoming fundraiser and the organization’s mission of creating opportunities for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
