It looks like Indigenous tribes in Wisconsin provided the margin for Biden there. As Charlie Pierce says, “These are people with every reason in the world not to have any faith at all, and they turned out to vote for a new president and, in local races, to elect more of their own. There’s something very John Lewis about all this.”

Wisconsin, a closely watched swing state, went narrowly for Biden by fewer than 21,000 votes as of Friday morning. There, the Indigenous population is 90,189 people as of 2018. Wisconsin counties overlapping the lands of the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, the Menominee Tribe and the Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohicans show that voters there helped tip the count to a Democratic majority. Menominee County, which overlaps the Menominee Tribe’s reservation, voted for Biden 82%, compared to the state as a whole at 49.4%.
