There are about a dozen and a half races that could determine who controls the Wisconsin Legislature in November.

What's at stake in the November election when it comes to Wisconsin's state government? This week's Capitol Notes looks into GOP President Donald Trump's approval numbers, and what other factors play into Democrats' quest to take over the Wisconsin Legislature and governor's office. We also cover a lawsuit from the Wisconsin Department of Justice over sports gambling in the state.
