Join us LIVE on Civic Media for results and analysis of the 2025 Wisconsin Spring Election
At 8 p.m., Dan Shafer and Todd Allbaugh will be joined by the Civic Media news team with updates from around the state.
The Recombobulation Area is a thirteen-time Milwaukee Press Club award-winning weekly opinion column and online publication founded by longtime Milwaukee journalist Dan Shafer. The Recombobulation Area is now part of Civic Media.
Polls close in Wisconsin at 8 p.m., and as they always say, if you’re in line, stay in line. Make sure you vote and your vote is counted.
As the polls close, we’ll be bringing you live coverage of the election results, from the statewide races for Wisconsin Supreme Court and State Superintendent, to the many referenda and local elections happening around the state.
You can find all of our updates on a special page, Vote: 2025.
You can also stream the show on our YouTube channel, embedded right here.
There are several other ways you can tune in. You can tune in on the Civic Media station in your community (find yours here), you can listen live on the Civic Media website, and you can download the Civic Media app.
Join us, and we’ll recombobulate together on this critical night for Wisconsin — and the nation.
