Why Carter may take Wisconsin
In Wisconsin liberals tilt toward Carter as the plausible 1976 Democratic front runner. Kennedy’s 1960 appeal and independence from smoky rooms influenced liberal voters here, while Carter’s moderating stance and anti establishment image draw backing despite mixed views on amnesty abortion and busing. Black voters, though a minority, largely back Carter for his civil rights posture as a former governor.
