What I want to hear from the Democrats is there will be NO conceding the election UNTIL

.... every vote is counted and every legal avenue has been pursued to ensure that no foreign intervention has taken place in WISCONSIN in 2020 like it did in 2016.

Walker is finally gone I have had enough of a fixed election in WISCONSIN to last a lifetime.

Election experts are saying that Trump's chances of winning are dependent on WISCONSIN in 2020.

Keep in mind RoJo aka Ron Johnson chairs the U.S. Senate: Committee on Homeland Security.

Convenient for looking the other way while a foreign government interferes with our election.

Legal challenges will be expensive and likely a lost cause, as the Supreme Courts ( both the state & US) have written opinions allowing
the gerrymandered districts to stand.

The only way to avoid a concession is to win each district, and the DEMS take back the Senate & Assembly.
It has been calculated to require at least a 70% popular vote total to beat the gerrymandering.
The Wisc Dems did get 54% of the total vote in 2018, yet only gained 3 Assy seats.
The other important point, you are assuming, is who conceeds.
A concession by a party does not influence anything, nor has and legal standing.
It is also the choice of the individual candidates, not the party.
