He didn't really lose the state. He increased his margin of victory in Kenosha from 2016 to 2020, as he did in most places that weren't rigged by the Democrats and Zuckerberg (Madison, Racine, Green Bay, Milwaukee and Eau Claire).
Ahh yes it is Conspiracy time again.....
Trump did better in the outskirts and rural areas of the state in 2020 than he did in 2016. He also did worse in many of the metro areas. Trump doing worse in GOP suburbs of Milwaukee such as Wakesha County and Ozaukee County played a role in him losing

Kenosha isn't an "outskirt" or a "rural area of the state." And it's Waukesha, not Wakesha. Trump didn't do as well in Waukesha, but he improved in Washington and Ozaukee - the other two "WOW" Milwaukee suburban counties that typically decide Wisconsin elections when the Democrats don't have COVID-19 to obfuscate their election fraud.

I was speaking more in general terms than specifically Kenosha with where he did better and where he did worse.
As far as the WOW Counties
Trump's % margin narrowed in all three
Ozaukee 18.8- 11.9
Washington 40.2 - 38.1
Waukesha 26.7- 20.8
Fact of the matter is Trump lost Wisconsin despite doing better in Kenosha and some other areas of the state because he did worse in some of the larger metro areas and it had nothing to do with fraud.
In addition, back to the point at hand, it isn't like Kenosha is some strong Democratic county currently that the GOP won. It was a stronger Democratic county and has trended more Republican, but the Democrats have made up for that with swings in some of the larger metro counties in the state (and not just Dane), some of the suburban Milwaukee counties, while still quite Republican, aren't as Republican as they were.
None of the articles available point out that this is a flip, but according to the current County Executive's Wikipedia page, he is a Democrat: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Kreuser
Good! Democrats won't drop their wokeness until they start losing elections... so, this is a step in the right direction!
Its funny every election cycle is always called a blue or red wave by the opposing party.
The R won the 2022 Kenosha Executive election by 700 votes. 2,000 fewer R votes compared to 2020 Trump election.
Kenosha county is tilting more toward the middle in the past 1.5 years.
**The county Executive election is officially non-partisan with neither candidate listed as R or D on the ballot. However, the 2022 candidates were R and D in prior elections for different offices years ago. R and D was not listed for the 2022 race. Surely many voters didn't know which party the candidates belong to since party isn't listed on the 2022 ballot.
Post when Dane County goes Republican. This is a nothing-burger.
Post when Dane county goes Republican?
When Dane County goes Republican I think we can bet on it being posted! But not by the Democrats.
(Biden took Dane County 260K to 79K. Biden still only won narrowly and is not expected to repeat that miracle)
Ms. Kerkman is the first Republican elected as the Kenosha County Executive since at least 1998, with other outlets reporting that she's the first Republican ever elected as the Kenosha County Executive, however Fox News can only verify the former.
