The turnout was high due to absentee ballots and this is what you should be expecting. Wisconsin is a marginal state, Trump steps in, endorses the GOP MAGA hat wearing chief justice and he loses in an almost unprecedented race. People are disgusted and frustrated with this president, and they are going to vote him out of office in a big way, convincingly and with many Republicans all down the ballot going with him.

His daily coronavirus briefings with his rambling, demented repetitive lies is helping widen the hole in his boat and sink it.
