Point Taken with Steve Scaffidi & Kristin Brey · Aug 21, 2026 · 1h 4m

Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey are joined by Joe Zepecki and Bill McCoshen to debate whether data centers have become the defining issue in Wisconsin’s governor’s race — and why neither David Crowley nor Tom Tiffany may have landed on the position voters actually want. The panel also asks what will really decide the race by November and takes a closer look at why political polls should be treated as snapshots rather than predictions. Plus, election controversy, Say Something Nice, Grab Bags, Flock cameras and the Week-In-Review.
