Owen is a far more informed political-science guy than I am, mostly because he hangs out with the right crowd.
Last week, he mentioned that he's voting 3rd Party as a means of salving his conscience; he cannot possibly vote for the Hildebeeste (nor can any right-thinking American); but he cannot hold his nose hard enough to vote for Trump (a position shared by many.)
So he's going with Evan Whatshisname.
But in that column he also mentioned a fact which is noteworthy and significant: Wisconsin is likely to go (D) in the Presidential. That's backed by a lot of history, folks. Read it and weep.
So. What Owen DID do is give a free pass to voters who want to stick it to the (R) Establishment: voting Trump is not likely to move Wisconsin into the (R) column (thus preserving the #NeverTrump people's wishes), but at the same time, voting Trump will send a message to the Establishment: "Screw You!!"
Tempting, eh?
As to the down-ballot: RoJo is seriously flawed as a conservative. He has utterly failed to throw a monkey-wrench into any of the Obozo schemes and plots, and he simply gave up as a conservative voice and vote after only one year as a Senator. However, Johnson is a reasonably honest guy, which makes him the only real choice compared to the slimeball do-nothing wacko-bird Feingold--who scores "zero" on any test of integrity or morals.
Those are the only races which matter. All the rest are fore-ordained by history with the possible exception of the race in the Fox Valley congressional--but the (R) up there looks like a good bet against just another hack (D).
I voted for Darrell Castle of the Constitution Party. I also voted for RoJo, as Feingold is just another liar.
